Every 1.5 to 3 minutes there is a chance that a Red Bacteria will spawn on the screen.

Tapping on it does not break the idle BPS streak and gives a random reward. The player may receive it immediately or watch a short second video ad to increase the reward amount. The latter option requires an active internet connection.

By researching Alien Life Forms in the Dark Matter Institute, the player can reduce the Red Bacteria spawning time by 20%.

Requirements

Certain conditions must be met so that a Red Bacteria could appear on the screen:

• Current BPS must be higher than 0
• The game must be open for 60-90 seconds (or less if the player has researched Alien Life Forms)

If you do not have any research in progress, then no Red Bacteria will spawn with a reduced research time reward.

Red Bacteria Ads

Regardless of the reward offered by the Red Bacteria, it is possible to increase it by watching a short video ad.

After the watching the ad, there is a cooldown of approximately 1 hour, where Red Bacteria ads are not available and it's possible to select only the free reward. The cooldown for Red Bacteria ads is in no way related to cooldown for other ad types.

If you have anthe ad-free version, then you can receive the better reward without watching ads.

Red Bacteria Rewards

Free Bacteria	~26.25%	Current BPS × 100-200	Current BPS × 1 000-2 000
Increased BPS	~21%	Current BPS × 15 for 15 seconds	Current BPS × 150 for 15 seconds

Free Diamonds	~10.5%	1	5
Reduce research time	~21%*	Reduce all active research time by 5%	Reduce all active research time by 25%

* - If you do not have any research in progress, then no Red Bacteria will spawn with a reduced research time reward.

Interaction With Other Mechanics

	Time Travel Using a time travel boost does not remove the active Red Bacteria effect. However, the increased BPS reward does not influence how many Bacteria will be gained from the time travel. See also: Diamond Purchases
	Planets Attacking a planet does not remove the active Red Bacteria effect. See also: Planets
	Travelling Scientists If the player receives a reduced research time reward from the Red Bacteria, the current travel time for Scientists is reduced as well. See also: Planetary Research
	Black Hole Entering a Black Hole does not remove the active Red Bacteria effect. See also: Black Hole
