Bacteria can be collected by tapping on the main screen.
Many resources and stats quickly reach [[Large Numbers|'''large numbers''']] that are displayed using abbreviations or scientific notation.
<!-- RESOURCES -->{{main page item right|styletitle ="vertical-align:top; padding: 25px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left:15px"Resources|text =
The basic [[Resources|'''resource''']] is Bacteria. It is used for purchasing and upgrading [[Colonies|'''colonies''']] or attacking [[Planets|'''planets''']].
There are seven eight different resource types:

</span>
Resources like Bacteria and Nanobots are lost after attacking a planet, but Gene Strands and some Evolved Bacteria can only be lost in the '''[[Black Hole]]'''.

<!-- MECHANICS -->{{main page item|styletitle ="vertical-align:top; padding: 25px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left:15px"Mechanics|text=
The core mechanics are '''[[BPS]]''' (Bacteria per second) and '''[[BPC]]''' (Bacteria per click). They can be modified by different effects, such as idle bonus for BPS or tapping bonus for BPC.
[[Red Bacteria|'''Red bacteria''']] and '''[[Evolved Bacteria]]''' provide other positive bonuses, which can help breaching a planet's planetary defenses. The '''[[Black Hole]]''' is an optional mechanic, which sets back most of the obtained upgrades, but offers [[Resources#Dark Matter|'''Dark Matter''']] as a reward.
The current main game mechanics can be categorized in the following wayinclude:
*[[BPS]]
*[[BPC]]
*[[Boost|Boosts]]
*[[Critical Hits]]
*[[Tapping Combo]]
*[[Planets]]
*[[Black Hole]]

<!-- COLONIES -->{{main page item right|styletitle ="vertical-align:top; padding: 25px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left:15px"Colonies|text=
Bacteria [[Colonies|'''colonies''']] produce bacteria per click ([[BPC]]) or bacteria per second ([[BPS]]). You can purchase different colonies for a certain amount of Bacteria.

<!--UPGRADES-->
{{main page item|styletitle ="vertical-align:top; padding: 25px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left:15px"Upgrades|text=
'''[[Upgrades]]''' increase Bacteria production or provide other bonuses, such as reduced [[Red Bacteria]] spawn time or increased effect of [[Resources#Gene Strands|Gene Strands]].
The Upgrades panel includes [[Upgrades#Bacteria Upgrades|'''Bacteria upgrades''']] and [[Upgrades#Gene Strand Upgrades|'''Gene Strand upgrades''']]. Other unrelated bonuses to player's stats and production can be obtained from:
*[[Dark Matter Institute|Dark Matter Institute Technologies]]
*[[Diamonds#Diamond Purchases|Premium Purchases]]
*[[Research]]
Bacteria upgrades are lost after attacking a planet, but gene strand upgrades remain until a player enters a Black Hole. Dark Matter Institute technologies and premium upgrades are permanent. Each upgrade type requires a different [[Resources|'''resource''']] - either Bacteria, Gene Strands, Dark Matter, or Diamonds.
}}
<!-- RESEARCH -->{{main page item right|styletitle ="vertical-align:top; padding: 25px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left:15px" Research|text=
'''[[Research]]''' is a way of generating resources, earning and mutating Evolved Bacteria, and improving bacteria production.
Most research types require some amount of time to be completed and use [[Resources#Scientists|'''Scientists''']], which are returned to the player after completion. New research types can be unlocked by destroying [[Planets|'''planets''']].
There are five eight research types:*[[Research#Bacteria Evolution|]]*[[Bacteria EvolutionEngineering]]*[[Research#Colony Irradiation|Colony Irradiation]]
*[[Research#Bacteria Mutations|Bacteria Mutations]]
*[[Research#Nanobot Production|Nanobot Production]]
*[[Planetary Research#]]*[[Bacteria Irradiation|Recycling]]*[[Bacteria Irradiation]]|-}}
