✦ Synopsis

A stochastic game of life (SGL) which simulates the dynamic evolution of a society of living organisms in the presence of noise is introduced. The SGL exhibits a very rich critical behavior with many critical edges at the irreversible phase transitions: extinction life and life overcrowding. Furthermore, within the living phase, critical edges at transitions between chaotic and frozen life are also found.
