Bacteria Engineering
From Bacterial Takeover
Bacteria Engineering is a research type that allows you to upgrade the stats of an Evolved Bacteria by a random amount. Each Bacteria can be upgraded this way only once every level.
The maximum and minimum percentage by which a Bacteria can be improved depends on which Bacteria Engineering option you choose. This also influences the time and Scientists necessary to complete the process. Higher rarity and higher level Bacteria take longer to improve and require more Scientists.
Bacteria Engineering can be unlocked after destroying Mars.
