The Carnivores games are a series of hunting simulation video games featuring prehistoric species ranging from dinosaurs to Quaternary mammals (depending on the title). The first three games were developed for the PC by Action Forms and released by WizardWorks Software between 1998 and 2001. The fourth game, Carnivores Cityscape, was developed by Sunstorm Interactive and released by Infogrames in 2002. The fifth installment, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter, is a port of Carnivores 2 to the iOS and Android by Tatem Games and the PSP by Beatshapers, released in 2010. Carnivores Ice Age soon followed and got its own port debuting for iOS, eventually making its way into Android. September 2013 marked the release of yet another game, Carnivores Dinosaur Hunter HD, an HD remake of the series. This new tittle includes new graphics and new hunting experiences packed with exciting features never seen before. The series has attracted a small cult following.
