Carnivores: Ice Age is a very solid FPS. It's not a true action game, because there's too much thinking, too much creeping, and our character walks a bit slow. If You come too close to the animal - very often You'll find an end under it's hooves, or on their antlers, or just simply torn too death. The graphics ain't breath-taking, but it's a solid 3d environment with simple textures. Sounds are OK, You can tell a difference if there's a wolf or a pig behind You ;)
So yes, it's fun - You walk around the island and try to snipe as many animals as it's possible. If You succeed - You earn points. Every map, every weapon, and every animal has it's point value. Before start of the game You have to allocate those points, and decide which animals and on which map You'll be hunting. For example, if You've got 80 points, You can choose a map for 50 points, an animal for 10 points, and You'll have 20 points left to allocate to use a pistol. Innovative system, but it's really simple and makes sense. The more You play - more options appear, allowing You to change Your style of play.
I had really low expectations once I saw game screenshots on AppStore, and I've been really pleasantly surprised - I spent few hours walking around the maps and shooting those defenseless creatures. Well, maybe not all of them are defenseless - just look at the screenshot below..
