Bacterial Takeover is a new game for the iOS and Android platforms where your goal is to destroy planet after planet using a bacterial infestation. Your goal is to collect bacteria, buy objects and upgrades that make even more bacteria, and then use your bacteria to destroy planets. You can earn diamonds and do all kinds of research to make the illnesses more powerful. Read on for some tips and tricks for Bacterial Takeover!
The bacteria gun is the most basic of your items, because this is what allows you to grow bacteria using only taps. Upgrade this for more bacteria per tap. Every other item allows bacteria to grow automatically, and the more auto-grow items that you buy, the more of them will appear at the bottom of the menu that you will be able to buy once you have the bacteria to do so. Each successive one is more and more expensive.
Whenever you attack and/or destroy a planet, you will unlock gene strands, and all of your items (bacteria gun, etc) will start back over from the beginning. Each gene strand that you unlock gives a 1% bonus to BPS and BPC, so it can be worth it to attack a planet once without destroying it in order to earn the gene strands quicker. Gene strands can then be used to buy various upgrades, such as permanent BPS boosts or BPC boosts. Don’t spend too many on bad upgrades, though, because each one spent also takes away 1% of your income bonus.
Diamonds are the premium currency of the game. The main way to get more diamonds is to purchase them using real-life money, but you can get free diamonds. One of the ways to get free diamonds is to watch ad videos for 5 apiece, as long as you have an internet connection. Plus, you can win diamonds in exchange for destroying a planet.
Keep research going as often as possible. At minimum you have one scientist, but you can purchase more of them if you want to do more research. The longer that you do a piece of research for, the better your chance of discovering something during the research. If you don’t play much, then do the day-long research for the best chance at discovering something. If you do play a lot, do the shorter time periods with less of a chance.
To get the most out of your taps, tap with as many fingers as you can at a time. The more that you can tap with, the more that you can earn. Plus, when you unlock the tap multiplier, you’ll be able to run it up to the maximum multiplier that much more quickly this way.
