Carnivores is a 1998 First-Person Shooter/Hunting Game where you, the player, get to be an Egomaniac Hunter on a quest to kill "prehistoric reptiles" on the alien planet of FMM UV-32. However, the game is not a generic Deer Hunter clone. No, you are not an invincible god able to slaughter your foes in droves. You are being hunted as much as you are hunting, and your foe is bigger, faster, stronger, and, occasionally, smarter than you. Can you survive?Carnivores spawned two sequels: Carnivores 2, and Carnivores: Ice Age. Carnivores 2 is generally considered the best of the series, although all three are good in their own right. They boast impressive (for The '90s) graphics which include semi-realistic water effects and well-detailed environments, in addition to an incredible AI system for the dinosaurs, though it can be spotty at times. They were considered Abandonware for a long time, until in 2010 they ported the games onto iPod (or at least, Carnivores 2 and Ice Age) as well as the PSP. There was also a PS3 game, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD, released in 2013. An improved and updated version of the PS3 game, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn, was released on Steam in May 2015, in spite of having a failed Kickstarter. Yet another updated version, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt, was released on June 1, 2021 for the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, and Xbox One, and is scheduled for a release on Steam in 2022.If anyone asks, there was, in fact, a fourth game, entitled Carnivores: Cityscape. It turned the game into a full-out generic FPS based around a semi-recycled plot (from The Lost World: Jurassic Park; at least, the movie version). In it, DinoHunt Corp. is running out of clients; interest in the dinosaurs is waning, and most of the people who might have jumped at the chance to hunt prehistoric creatures are already dead because they tried and failed miserably. So they decide to bring some dinosaurs from FMM UV-32 to the people as a kind of traveling zoo. As can be expected, the dinosaurs escape into the city that the spaceship carrying them crashes in, and it's up to you (as an "Agent") to kill them, or, if playing as a dinosaur (the campaign has five missions for each), to kill the agents... or something.It's not brought up in polite conversation with fans of the original series, and is generally considered So Okay, It's Average, though it has its share of fans. It was also the first (and, so far, only) game in the series with online capabilities.note The second game was planned to have online multiplayer, but the idea was scrapped in development. | |

Noisy Nature | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_10937270 | comment |
Noisy Nature: Subverted in an intriguing fashion. Almost all of the hunted animals (the ones that give points) are almost silent, only calling back if you use the dinosaur call. Some of the ambient animals make noises (specifically, the flying ones) but not all that often—meaning that it's rather jarring and creepy when they do. Ultimately, the islands are disconcertingly quiet—often, the noise you make from walking are about all you hear. | |

| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_15184afb | comment |
This Loser Is You: The Player Character is slow as a sloth when walking, compared to the dinosaurs, can barely climb a hill, and "runs" at an elderly person's pace. It's hard to tell sometimes if it's that you're really that bad, or if it's just that the dinosaurs are overpowered, though. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: The game's animals are taken from many different periods and real life landmasses. Justified (read: Hand Waved) in that this is merely convergent evolution, and none of these dinosaurs are really dinosaurs. Also, a Dragunov SVD in the year 2190, although this is at least kind of plausible, since it could be an antique (though why you'd use an antique to hunt the most dangerous animals ever seen by man is kind of troubling). | |

Easter Egg | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: A rather literal example. Manya Jungle, the fourth area of Carnivores 2 and Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter has a cave system in the eastern mountains of the place. If one explores this place enough, you'll encounter a chamber full of large, leathery eggs, some of which are splayed open in four segments at the top, revealing the hollow, ribbed inside. Cityscape also has a statue of Serious Sam in one of it's levels. | |

Ghost Town | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_2dc3e97c | comment |
Ghost Town: The abandoned settlement, Fort Ciskin, is this. It was abandoned after an angry Tyrannosaurus rex went on a rampage and destroyed its so-called "Dinosaur Wall." You can go in to find a few buildings and a huge gate, hanging on its hinges. It's rather eerie when thought about too much. | |

Headbutting Pachy: The game's instruction manual mentions that Pachycephalosaurus use their thick skull rimmed with knobby spikes as a battering ram against other dinosaurs for defense. Ironically this isn't seen in the game and their neck is a target for hunters. | |

One Nation Under Copyright: DinoHunt Corp. owns the rights to FMM UV-32, and can basically do whatever they like on it. In the second game it's shown that they even tried to put down a colonial settlement—even after they said the planet was "inhospitable for colony life"—though it doesn't end particularly well. | |

Gang Up on the Human | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_5ade9ace | comment |
Gang Up on the Human: Dinosaurs do not interact with each other at all. On the one hand, this means that a spooked dino running past a resting dino you're sighting out on won't disturb it. On the other hand, predators will ignore other dinos and go straight for you, and you can have multiple predators or even predators and angry herbivores all coming after you. | |

Roar Before Beating | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_5c65fc1a | comment |
Roar Before Beating: The T.rex does this; it's basically a grace period for you to get a shot in before it hits you like a freight train. It will be subverted if you're lucky enough to get a shot off before the T.rex notices you, because if you hit it but do not land the killing blow, it skips to the running-you-down bit. You have to hope you have the luck of a card shark and hit it in the eye at that point. The only way to survive a Tyrannosaurus that's noticed you outside of card-shark luck is to either evac the situation before that bastard can kill you or hope there's ground nearby that the thing can't climb, but you can. | |

Nintendo Hard: The dinosaurs have an annoying habit of detecting you long before you have a chance to spot them. You, at least until you become stupidly rich in-game, cannot have all the dinosaurs at once for a hunt, which means they won't all be on radar. That means they can sneak up on you. | |

Death World | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_63557923 | comment |
Death World: FMM UV-32 is described as this when looked at from the prospect of colonization, but in practice it really isn't that bad. It seems that most of the land mass is island-based, and although it is very rough terrain, it's not entirely unworkable. The dinosaurs wouldn't be that big a deal, either, although it could be Gameplay and Story Segregation and there are in fact intended to be a lot more than the game could feasibly handle, engine-wise. As for deterring development, you'd think that they could just exterminate the dinosaurs like any other animal; then again, they're making a killing on it. | |

Raptor Attack | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_695efde3 | comment |
Raptor Attack: The first two games feature Velociraptor, and the iOS and Android versions added Utahraptor and Troodon. Unfortunately, none are especially accurate. The Velociraptor might as well have leapt out of Jurassic Park: an oversized, naked, bendy-tailed excuse for a dromaeosaurid. The Utahraptor is slightly better, with non-pronated hands and a small crest of feathers on its head, but that's about the only place it has feathers (no one seems to understand that raptors were completely cloaked in feathers from head to toe, they weren't just lizards with a mohawk). The Troodon is probably the worst: scaly, much bigger than the real animal, and as if this weren't bad enough it is flat-footed (everyone seems to know that raptors had an enlarged foot claw, but the fact that troodontids also had it is a somewhat lesser-known fact). These inaccuracies may be justified if, as the game's manual states, the game is set on a distant planet instead of on prehistoric Earth, in which case any resemblances of the inhabitants to Earth's dinosaurs would be purely superficial. | |

Excuse Plot: Lasts about as long as it takes to go from picking a character to your first hunt. Then it's all about the dinosaurs. In a way, it's actually subverted... indecisively... because there are little mini stories within the maps, sometimes explicitly, and sometimes only seen when you go exploring. Subverted by Cityscape, however. | |

Precursors: A loose, generally unconnected plot thread goes through some of the maps, talking about how there used to be a race of sentient beings on the planet who built pyramids in one map and a temple in another, as well as a reproduction of Stonehenge in the Fort Ciskin map. The game, with what little information it gives, says that they worshiped the Velociraptor and T. rex, although little more is said past the ruins' strategic resource to the hunter. | |

Immune to Bullets | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_99db72ee | comment |
Immune to Bullets: The Tyrannosaurus rex is, in a practical sense. It's an instant kill if you hit it in the eye, but otherwise it has a stupidly large amount of health which can't even begin to be chipped off unless you enter debug mode (it has somewhere around 1000 health; compare to most of the other dinosaurs, which peak at about 30, and the rifle's damage score, 4). Even in debug mode, it still takes a long time to kill, and if you're too low when it reaches you, it can still kill you. | |

| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_aa8dcc21 | comment |
Mega-Corp: DinoHunt Corp. is a fairly mundane example. They just act like a normal African safari company, albeit one that charges absurd rates (presumably; the narrative implies it), and with good reason. Unless one takes the fourth game into account, but most players like to act like that game is a different series altogether. However, if one does do so, they start to look a bit like InGen, though leaning more towards the incompetence rather than outright malice. | |

Super-Persistent Predator | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_ad982e04 | comment |
Super-Persistent Predator: Played With. Most things will stop chasing you after awhile (if you're lucky enough to get away, anyhow), and sometimes the carnivores will even run away instead of coming after you, assuming you hit them from far enough away. But good old Mr. T. rex? Oh no. He's on your ass the moment he detects you, and unless you go into debug mode, you better hope you can bring him down before he reaches you. If you do go into debug mode, he will continually chase you across the map until either you kill him or he kills you. | |

Convection, Schmonvection | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_b0a91b69 | comment |
Convection, Schmonvection: Averted, but in a half-hearted manner. If get too close to lava, you get a health bar. Unfortunately, your character will not set on fire, though. Played straight in debug mode, where you can stand on (and yes, it is on; the lava is just a texture, not an actual liquid like the water) the lava without a care in the world. | |

Weaksauce Weakness | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_c09dbbbb | comment |
Weaksauce Weakness: In the first couple of games, luring the T-Rex into deep water where it's forced to swim slows it down significantly, making it much easier to get a kill-shot on one of its eyes. | |

A.K.A.-47: The Dragunov SVD in the first game is just called "Sniper Rifle." In the later games, the model is changed to a normal rifle with a scope. | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: The abandoned settlement in the second area of Carnivores 2, Fort Ciskin. It becomes quite creepy when you think about what once happened in the very spot you're standing. Also, the ruins look fairly recent, so who's to say that T. rex isn't still around somewhere, lurking in the shadows, waiting for round two? | |

Terrifying Tyrannosaur: There's an incredibly terrifying Tyrannosaurus, and his only weak spot is his eye, and you have only one chance to aim your shot just right. If you miss that one shot, then pray that the gods will have mercy on your soul! | |

Updated Re-release | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_df1793de | comment |
Updated Re-release: Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD was a Video Game Remake of the first game for the Playstation 3 with more modern graphics and conveniences. This was ported to PC via Steam a year later as Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn. 6 years later, the game was ported from the old proprietary engine to Unity (which in theory would make it easier to keep up-to-date with new features) and re-released as Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt for 8th gen consoles and later for PC. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You | |
| Carnivores (Video Game) / int_ffd816e7 | comment |
Everything Trying to Kill You: Well, not everything, but anything that can feasibly kill you will do so if it is given the chance. So, that Velociraptor? It's going to gore you before it eats you. How about that Ceratosaurus? Him too. How about Tyrannosaurus rex? He throws you around like a ragdoll instead of actually eating you. | |
