While traditionally, tribes lived at separate camp sites, entirely remote from each other, with the One World format, the competing tribes live together and are free to interact with each other as they please.
How the twist effects the game is largely up to the castaways, they are allowed to share resources with their rivals and work together as one solid unit, or if they choose to, further define Tribal lines and live separately from each other, if they choose to do this, they may visit the other tribe.
