Carnivores is a Fantasy First-Person Shooter developed by Action Forms in 1998 for the PC. Carnivores, released shortly after WizardWork's successful Deer Hunter, "proves itself to be more than "just another Deer Hunter clone" by adding two major twists to the genre: allowing the hunter to hunt dinosaurs, and allowing the dinosaurs to hunt the hunter as well" as some critics say. The Carnivores 2 sequel gives slightly better graphics, a new format, more dinosaurs and weapons, brand new maps, and an improved AI. Carnivores Ice Age offers a whole new take on the series with animals from the Ice Age and levels to fit the theme.
The gameplay of the original Carnivores remains constant throughout the series, with few
changes. The game opens with a login screen, where users can make a new account or load a previous one. If creating a new account, they will be asked to read and approve a "waiver", stating that the player releases DinoHunt Corp. of any responsibility in the case the player is injured or killed (an interesting sidenote is that the player can't really be injured in any of the games - the closest the player can come is staying underwater or walking through lava, in which cases a health bar pops up; when attacked by dinosaurs, however, any hit is an instant death).
