Phone app versus couch edition

World keeps the bite-and-grow fantasy and changes the economy. The wiki describes tiered shark sizes, missions, and three separate currencies. That is the split I use when someone asks whether to stay on Evolution: Evolution has the longer historical roster, World has the newer production and a controller version. PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Switch received the paid edition in 2018, with backward compatibility on newer PlayStation and Xbox hardware distinguished from a separate native release. I do not copy a sale price, because the phone app’s gem packs move by region and the console sticker is a different product.

How many places

One paragraph of the wiki says the game has four different locations. A menu caption on the same wiki says five locations. These are two different statements inside the same source, rather than independent confirmation of a fixed count. They remain a four-versus-five discrepancy; no inferred extra location is added here.

Shark size grades run from small starters up through oversized tiers. The wiki’s size ladder is the reference I trust more than a YouTube thumbnail that crops a shark to fill the frame. Google Play’s icon is the thumbnail on this page.
