Another thing I would like to talk about is how creative the shark evolution and sets are, they can be obtained in various progression through story or collectibles which makes them worthwhile to get or even fully completing.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
58 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A really effective and short revenge story where you both root for your own shark and the fisherman himself on who will be succeeding until the end.
