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 game, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter, is a port of Carnivores 2 to the iOS by Tatem Games and the PSP by Beatshapers, released in 2010. The series has attracted a small cult following.
