Carnivores is a 1998 first-person shooter video game developed by Action Forms and published by WizardWorks for Microsoft Windows.

During an exploration mission in unknown space, a science vessel known as FMM UV stumbled upon a planet with a climate similar to that of Earth, making it suitable for life.

During the initial scouting expedition, the planet was declared inhospitable for colonization due to its unstable terrain and an unexpected abundant population of extraterrestrial organisms that resemble dinosaurs and other prehistoric reptiles.

Level locations include jungles, and deserts accompanied by pyramids and an ancient temple.

[6] In designing the game's dinosaurs, the development team referenced bones, paintings, and the Jurassic Park films.

[8] Trent C. Ward of IGN praised its dinosaur and environment sounds, but believed that the game was "too damn easy," stating that it was "a surprisingly entertaining game that just doesn't have enough options to keep players busy for the long term.

"[13] Greg Kasavin of GameSpot praised its sound effects, and its levels for looking "surprisingly authentic," but noted that the game is "tantalizing yet not quite complete to be entirely satisfying.

Jon stated that the game showed "its budget status in some ways" such as the minimal weapon and level choices, as well as the repetitive appearance of the environments, but he concluded that the game's action elements "take it a notch above most hunting titles".

[9] Michael L. House of AllGame praised the graphics and the lack of music, writing, "Ambient sounds definitely let you feel as if you've arrived in a prehistoric landscape."
