Diamonds
From Bacterial Takeover
Diamonds can be used to purchase otherwise unobtainable goods and bonuses or to speed up research time.
Most diamond purchases are available in the premium panel and provide permanent power-ups.
Similarly to Dark Matter, diamonds are never reset when attacking planets or entering a Black Hole.
Obtaining Diamonds
- from microtransactions

By spending some diamonds, it is also possible to reveal the result of bacteria mutation. The cost depends on evolved bacteria level:
