Community Insight:
So we were finding hunting games then we were scrolling and soon we found this game the scale was perfect.
There is so much to do and so many updates every week.
We used to play this game back when we were YOUNG YOUNG. We remembered it, came back to it, and then got every dinosaur, and get every achievement! Great replayability and its just SO FUN.
We killed it all the dinosaurs, including the T-Rex its everything it says on the description you can kill dinosaur or just do Dino watching there is so many maps. Heres our suggestions. You can become a dinosaur if you kill it become it could just be a normal dino not Getting killed by a hunter or you have to run away from Hunter or hunt the hunter suggestion for this game overall, we love it even though you not be a dinosaur developers, please add a response to this Review.
Love it!! This and ice age Carnivores being back those 90s classics. Wish there were further updates! :).
We like the Dinos and hunting them.
Us and our friend use to play this as a kid and when we figured out that we both shared the same childhood game we wanted to play together but we realized we couldnt because there wasnt co-op we think it would be really nice.
This game is 20 years old we dont even care if it gets updated but its a great game and really really fun we bought the pro version and it was worth the cash yall need to make more games like this.
Devs a lot of us know theres a lore and why is their eggs and the monster of the hills and the big rock thingy devs please show us the lore.
This is the best game we ever had on our iPad how did you make this game.
Love this game so much it is so worth your money! Get now our brother has been playing it for years now IT GOOD.
We have played this game for years and will continue to. We wish there is more maps, dinosaurs, and guns. But over all, this is a masterpiece and an amazing game that we love.
Pretty cool game! We love the information about the dinosaurs and the accuracy. Very fun! Thank you! <3.
Just like it was advertised, your on an intense high risk and reward mission. Great stuff and attention to detail. We can tell this toon a lot of refining and work so thank you.
Ive played this game for years. We even have it on our PS5. This game deserves to have more lore and almost a story based experience involved.
In our personal opinion, carnivores is the perfect game to boost up your patience and challenge! If your looking for a game where you can hunt something down and not get eaten, then why are you here? Go play Deer Hunter or something! Random carnivores spawn throughout the map, which is helpful to keep yourself aware! There are many strategies, and tricks you can use for hunting! And it comes with multiple choices for weaponry! Along side around 20 different dinosaurs to choose from! From the friendly parasaurolophus, to the deadly Tyrannosaurus! Carnivores is fun for all ages! Probably worth your money.
Its too good for a review, play it yourself.
We LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH BUT PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD CARNO IT WAS SO GOOD.
This game is good for hunting and doesnt require WiFi. Plus we like the original PC games and Saurian Targets tips and tricks are really helpful.
Flaws or not we dont care because we have had this game since it came out. Since about second or third grade Id always look forward to playing this game and it always gave us the best memories. We are 19 now and still play this game we know its not just nostalgia because we still enjoy this game and its still hard sometimes but Im so happy to see that there are still updates now and then we hope someone at the company sees this because we genuinely love this game and always have and always will!!!! If iPhones are still around and things dont change and delete all our data we will definitely be playing this with our future kids! Thank you carnivores.
This game made us childhood and thousands of others it is the best game ever created for a mobile phone.
This game is Great! But Can you add Gigantosaurus To the game? And when you die the cutscene should be when you die the Gigantosaurus Grabs your head and swallow you whole Please respond And tell us if you will add this suggestion.
We love the game can you add baryonyx and therizinosaurus and a new gun and a new world Thank you so much for the update! Even tho new editions were not updated into the game but there might be hope because it says 2.0 tatem games pls and we repeat pls bring the dilophosaurus in the next update maybe on a holiday like a special gift update pls tatem games this could be the best money maker game ever with the right updates. Well there is another update 2.0.1 pls Tatem games pls add dilophosaurus. To everyone who wants dilophosaurus you can hunt it! You need a android and Zarchiver go to the file android/obb/com.tatem.dinhunter click main. And click view go to dinhunter then go to characters then rename utahraptor to dilophosaurus and dilophosaurus to Utahraptor Ive tried this and it works! We cant believe Im hunting the dilophosaurus.
Hello our fellow Dino loving friends and community of carnivores Real quick before we get into the short review we want to say a big shout out to target the YouTuber short for his name. Lets get into the review ive been part of the community for a while. Carnivores community of the games not Im going to 2021 release the new reborn series in please please come back to this is so many people that say in their reviews that they want to come back great game definitely should get it this review is from 2023 by everybody give a shout out to the entire carnivores community community and a bunch of other Youtubers go look them up on YouTube best game Ive ever played. By the way dont speak English but live in America thats why some this is spelled incorrectly.
The developers of carnivore can you guys add new dinosaurs such as scorpions, sharks, ants, Titanoboa, A large crocodile, citipati, dilophosaures, etc.
We love the game and Im hoping we get new dinosaurs soon and add a lot of dinosaurs please.
This the best hunting game we have seen with dinosaurs in it! We love this game but this is what you should add:1.add something where we can check where we shot the dinosaur after killing it:2.Add a marker to see the blood and maybe footsteps:3.maybe add some water Dinos that will be cool to hunt down but you will need scuba gear for it.This is it this game is good hope you add these things.
We remember when we were younger we used to play this game and playing it now hit all the nostalgia parts this game is amazing cause it aged like fine wine.
We love this game! We were hooked on it for the first couple of weeks so heres our thoughts for how to make it even better. 1. Make it so that you can get more Dinos and maps and weapons sooner. 2. It would be cool if the machine that picks up Dino corpses used a claw instead of a magnet. 3. It would be cool if in the trophy room there was only one statue of every species but it told you how many you had killed. It would also be cool if it told you the smallest and biggest of the ones you had killed in that info. 4. We would also appreciate if jeeps or other vehicles were added to the game so you dont have to teleport when chasing a fast dino. 5. Ocean Dinos would be so cool 6. Different weather settings. We love the gameplay and hope the developers see this! Thank you for the game :) we would also like to add that two bucks for pro is an amazing deal but it does take away from the adventure of the game, like theres nothing worth getting credits to buy because you automatically have everything now. Still really fun though.
They are not gonna work on the game all hope is gone for the game.
We love this game a lot and after seeing it has gotten some updates Im hoping that we get the Dilophosaurus and other animals to be added to the game or at least moding capabilities.
The game is awesome but we think some more game modes are needed maybe a mode where you can play with other people or maybe a mode where you have a limited amount of time to hunt the dinosaurs we dont at least some new mode we just think the game is a little repetitive a new mode would be good and new dinosaurs and new guns would be nice please update this game.
Need more updates, and more species that the only problem we had for this game.
Older versions didnt lock away 90 percent of everything in premium. We downloaded an update so Im toast. Animals dont have realistic movements, so theyre hard to shoot on the move. Best way to kill T Rex is from high ground. You can relocate onto water fyi. You cant interact with anything. Only shoot and move. (Add opening doors?).
So ive beennplaying this game for like 2 years, but , now we realices that the Dinosaur ames are WRONG. Like the raptor its called apatosaurus like bro what.. And its not only the raptor, its all the dinosaurs another thingbis when we click the button to take the dino to the trochis, but the Spaces hoy thing doesnt come to pick it up. Overall its a VERY fun game :).
The game is really good but the bad part is that the bullets miss even tho it hits it and another bad part is that it wastes ur point every time you go in a game but the game is really great.
We have a feeling the developers dont even read the game reviews, but just in case, Id like to mention that they were so close to making a fantastic mobile version for this game. The updated FPS and rendering are super solid and the game feels just like a smoother retro Dino video game. The gameplay and extra hunting mechanics are fun to engage with, even if its simple in retrospect. The lore is really interesting and theres a whole rabbit hole we never expected, but we have just one issue with the game. Why would you lock every other map behind a paywall? We dont want to spend $2 on content that should just be in the game if its generally free to play anyway. We have preventions in place that dont allow us to spend money in the game without taking it off of a parents card, and that makes it so that we cant even play the whole game without spending our familys money. Developers, if youre reading this, please change the monetization content.
We dont like how you basically cant have acces to 99% of the game unless you have 2 dollars which im not spending for a game im probably wont play for the next month but we will say if you are willing to spend the money it is a very fun game.
Why cant every single dinosaur be free to hunt like why bro even THE guns are not free to use its like we have to give 100 million dollars just to have the guns amd dinosaurs like why.
So we kill every Dino in about two hits why is it we dump 90 bullets into the Trex with revolver and everything reload and it still never dies its indestructible and impossible to kill.
We downloaded to play through our childhood games but we gotta the bundle what happened to the original getting the free version like bro why.
Its one of our favorite games but since when did u have to pay actual money to buy dinosaurs and weapons.
When we kill a dinosaur we cant see our points when we kill a dinosaur its like hidden in the top right of our screen and plus we have our fps on aka it shows us how much fps that we have but we cant see it on the top left please fix this problem.
The spiritual successor to Carnivores, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt is god awful but this game is and will always be amazing. You should make a console port for the OG game, heres a little idea on how to sell it. Carnivores: Extinction Edition Price: FREE Includes: 2 areas, an area dedicated to Carnivores2 with a bonus map from the OG Carnivores1 and an area dedicated to Ice Age. Includes: Mobile ports upgraded graphics Includes: Local Co-op/Online co-op supporting up to 4 players. Includes: The arcadey dinosaur wave game mode, supports 2 player local co-op. Includes: Delphaeus Hills Ghoul event (A weekly cryptid hunt event where you have to hunt the monster) Includes: The Full base game. How does the game make money? Mod DLC: Literally just take some of the most popular Carnivores2 mods from PC and sell them on the console port as official DLC. Cosmetic DLC: Gun skins & cosmetics could be bought to customize your character.
This is a very good game to play when your bored, truly a underrated game.
We first played this game when we were 4-5 Im 16 now bro the nostalgia.
The game wont let us upgrade to pro , we already payed. Everytime we try to upgrade it disappears.
We used to play this when we were younger and it still makes us happy to this day.
We love this game we can play it for hours and its not that hard to figure out.
This game was so much fun back in the day and nostalgia is keeping it that way. Best hunting game in the world babyyyyy.
