⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This game is great
Not worth it
This game is trash bought some stuff never received it hit them up and never got a reply back
Pretty fun idle game
In a future update i would love to see another button added next to the x100 and max upgrsde buttons. I would like a button that says next. The next button would upgrade a colony to the next purchasable upgrade on the upgrades screen. I have been playing this game for about a week now off and on and each time i pick it up its hard to put down. Thank you in advance.
In-App purchases don’t work
Game is pretty fun but do not spend any money in game. You get charged for whatever you buy and never shows up in game. Especially the “no ads”. Tried reaching out to their support but I think this game is abandoned. Was forced to request a refund through Apple.
Wouldn’t buy the add ons
It’s an alright game. But bought the x2 and didnt get the x2 multiplier on the app.
It’s AWESOME
I love this app I’ve been playing since 6
Game charged me 4 times for the no ads and didn’t give the no ads. Won’t respond to messages
Poor. Deleted the game. It’s a scam.
Great fun idle game
But I’m curious as to why the no ads option stopped working after 2 red bacteria
Erst gut
Die ersten zwei Planeten haben Spaß gemacht jetzt ist es nur noch langweilig. Aber man kann es offline spielen

Pretty fun ngl
Ya know I used to play this game a lot when I was a kid. I reinstalled it out of nostalgia, and it’s just as good as I remembered. It’s not super addictive, letting you play other apps if you want, but yeah that’s about it. 5/5 stars, just really good game.
Took my money but still advertising.
Fun game and I’ve been playing it off and on over the years. I just recently decided to pay the five bucks to get rid of ads, but they are still showing me ads. Scam app. Don’t download, they’ll take your money and still serve you ads even though you paid to not have them. Do not download. 1/10 do not recommend.
in-app purchases
now i get why some people hate in-app purchases, but i love them just to speed up my game but the one thing is that im keen on the best of deals. and one main thing is i limit how much i spend (around $10). i have realized before buying the $10 purchase of gems that technicly its a bad deal (400 gems). if you buy the $4 one twice (175 gems), and the $2 one(60 gems), you'll get a total of 410 gems. i get it only a 10 gems difference but these are thing i look for in games somtimes and when you do in app purchases like that, you should have a better scale system to how much you get compared to the lesser amount. but basically this reveiw is just for fun.
Bugs
I’m have the issue where my 20 multiplier isn’t working
New bugs
Good game, addictive but whenever I open the game it crashes immediately and nothing seems to work to fix this, all other apps work except this one
Fun Game
I always come back to it at some point. Hoping for more updates and improvements over time!
DO NOT PURCHASE NO ADS, Support in app doesn’t get back to you
I would rate this game three stars, because it can be educational but that’s limited because the game doesn’t explain what each bacteria does. I purchased no ads, the company broke its word by still making me watch ads. Got a refund, decided to give them a second chance. BIG MISTAKE. They stole my money and I again didn’t get what I paid for. I contacted help, NO RESPONSE, even though I sent them my account number, screen shot of my purchase, and screenshot of their promise about no ads. This time is my fault, because I gave them a second chance. I guess they just want to SCAM PEOPLE out of their money.
[POR EL MOMENTO]
Por supuesto que no le voy a dar 5 estrellas ahorita, se debe a que el juegos te inspira cierta adición;{Y no se de a que es una droga}. Si al final de cierto aguante que yo resista... ...lo desinstalo, y me apresuró rápido a reseñas y quitó mis cuatro estrellas. Si se pudiera dar ni 1a estrella, sería como quitarle la hermana a tu prima{quitarle toda prenda de ropa y darle a las dos hermanitas su ostias cojidas de qlo y vag*na} ~\*_*/~
Update issues
Love this game as a pass time, but this last update has made it impossible for me to attack planets. Hope it gets fixed soon.
Endlich
wurde das mit dem Übersetzen erledigt, jetzt noch dafür Sorgen das man nicht umsonst Filme/ Werbung schaut und keine Diamanten dafür bekommt..... Ansonsten muss ich sagen ein Super Game was Spaß macht, schon alleine aus dem Grund das man nicht mit Werbung zugefüllt wird!
:)
I cannot stop playing this game
No purchase rewards
Bought a couple of the in app boosters and got nothing. -$20
Very good game
It’s a fun game but I don’t like the planetary weakness
Sollte für das iPad ....
... optimiert werden, die Buttons und co sind einfach viel zu groß!!!
Gutes Game
Bis zum letzten Update, war alles super. Jetzt kann ich die Sprache nicht mehr ändern. Nur noch englisch.
Bacteria gamer
Amazing wish I had old progress still lives up to the hype
Broken p2p…
Purchases don’t seem to work at all. No ads still shows ads, Friday purchases don’t give any bonuses. Money still goes though
Love it but
I don’t seem to be able to proceed, I attack the planet population goes down to zero but the the the game doesn’t move on I have to close the app go in again it gives me the genes but doesn’t allow me to progress to the next planet, hope it can be solved as I like the game idea a lo.
update war wohl nix
seitdem update wird das spiel nervig in die länge gezogen. jeder angriff auf nen planeten spiel immer das gleiche video ab , welches man nicht abschalten kann. bis zum update wars eigentlich nen nettes idel game und nun einfach nur für die tonne
War ein top spiel.
seit dem neuen Update kann ich keine Planeten mehr zerstören. Ich habe genug Bakterien drücke auf Angriff und dann sobald die Bewohner leer sind bleibt es stehen. Wenn ich spiel neu starte ist Planet immer noch nicht zerstört. Wenn das beseitigt ist gibt es von mir 5 Sterne
I have played for years
I have played this game about 5 years ago and the graphics has been the same until now. The graphics was updated and I have 1 small problem with it and that is when I go to buy colonies I click on the planet view and it is annoying. The skill point system is great but what about gene strands because I usually go straight to the planets Colonies but now I take a moment at the artificial planet before continuing and it has slowed my progress. I have not gone through the black hole and it’s at 84% right now and I have maxed out the skill points already so it’s kinda useless but anyways this is a great game. I also like how you give the option to watch and ad but never force it which is extremely rare in games that have ads.
Got something sick of after five minutes.
I got sick of it after minutes, I’m sorry but I couldn’t figure out how to evolve the bacteria and that is why I deleted it.
Great game, but glitch.
Love the game! Keeps you interested while having to wait for things to upgrade. But since the update I can’t attack any planets... making the update kind of pointless.
Addictif jusqu’à ...
À partir de la huitième planète, le rythme devient d’une lenteuuurrrrr, jusque là je pouvais détruire une planète par jour et là j’y suis coincée depuis plusieurs jours, comme si le jeu était fait pour qu’on n’aille pas plus loin... Donc je désinstalle.
Eigentlich sehr gutes Spiel
Leider seit letztem Update nicht mehr Spielbar. Man kann keine Planeten mehr „besiegen“. Dabei hört es einfach auf und man kann das Spiel nur beenden... bitte updaten.
Honestly the best mobile idle game I can recommend
I used to play this quite a bit a few years ago, after coming back to it I remembered just how fun it was. The amount of playtime is as close to endless as you can get, and the ads are completely optional, certain boosts and multiplication of rewards are grantable through them if you choose, however. That fact is very refreshing, because most mobile games nowadays are quite annoying regarding that aspect. Other than that, it also has a sort of calming feel, quite ironic for a game about destroying and conquering planets with bioweapons. All in all, definitely give it a try, the start may be slow, but it ramps up after the first planet. :)

good good
good good
Полный сброс
После 2-го прохода через чёрную дыру поиграл и вышел из игры, при следующем заходе в игру обнулился ВЕСЬ прогресс. И игра началась заново с обучения..
Bug
I was having tons of fun until this past update now i cant attack any planets in the event or not, it just freezes the game! Please fix
Mor mins mor pls
Mor minerals
Game breaking glitch
Currently every time I attack a planet the game cannot proceed further and I have to restart it, only to find that my attack did nothing but further the lengths I must go to destroy the planet. Absolutely infuriating.
Kinda good?
I guess I don’t like the game like other people I think it’s a good game but not amazing I like it lease then anyone else ok? Bye!
Awesome game but
Love the game except for my mutated bacteria don't always work and my values for bacteria bps lowers drastically for no apparent reason like my gene strands are not working either
Keine Werbung!?
Man kann zur Belohnung keine Werbung. Es kommt immer die Anzeige wenn man das Spiel startet, das man den gesammelten Wert verdoppeln kann. Aber man kann keine Werbung anschauen. Schade.
THE BEST GAME I EVER PLAYED
I spent more than three hours clicking away, the is a great game to pass the time. I really enjoy playing this game!
New Event Broke Planet Attack
I can’t move to another planet after attacking a planet. It used to have a button saying Collect but now it just sits there. I can restart game but that doesn’t allow me to advance.
Great Game
Good little game. Addictive. Needs iPhone X screen adjusting. Cuts the top off after update.
To many numbers
I got about 17 numbers across the top of the screen and it won't get any more flasks nuclear plants or anything I'm on my 7th planet and it's just not working now
Hits a brick wall
I was really involved and intrigued by this game for quite a long while, however I've reached a planet called "Dufrieyama" and since then I've not progressed for two weeks, my interest waning dramatically in that time, it's too difficult to go from an artificial planet to a mars colony and I've been pulling out all the stops on research, upgrades and bacteria collection. For this I'd only give it half of what it deserves, whilst this feature makes the game endless it's also verging on impossible.
