Each
player/team
controls
a
fluidly
blob
of
pixels/cells.
As
the
player
moves
their
cursor
these
pixels
follow
it
and
multiply.
When
two
teams'
pixels
touch
each
other
they
attack/take
damage
and
eventually
die
and
can
be
eaten/expanded
into
for
a
slightly
higher
growth
rate
for
attackers.

The strategy lied mostly in players trying to get big blobs and the largest surface of attack. I didn't play the game that much, so I don't really know any advanced tactics.

Maps were simple flat surfaces and binary: a pixel is either a wall that block movement or an open passable area. Of course there were also different textures that could be used.

Each round could have different settings that would increase or decrease movement rate/growth rate/attack/health/defense numbers for the cells. The game was open source and probably not the first of this genre.
