Carnivores: Ice Age

It may be a Minis game but that's no excuse for it being little fun to play. It claims to take you on a realistic ice safari... if ice safaris are boring and fairly uneventful, then it does the job.

The monetization model of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming presence of ads and the reliance on in-app purchases to unlock content. Many players express frustration over the frequency of ads, which disrupt gameplay and often fail to function properly, while others feel that the game has shifted to a "pay-to-win" structure, limiting access to animals and weapons without spending money. Overall, the consensus is that the monetization strategy detracts from the gaming experience, with many players wishing for a one-time purchase option to eliminate ads and unlock all features.
- “Plus, no ads!”
- “Great game, definitely worth the in-app purchases.”
- “So first off this game was one I played as a kid so I downloaded it and it was better than I remember, which was cool, so I bought it because hell yeah and no ads.”
- “This game used to be so good; all the animals and guns I had for free with in-game money. Now this game is pay-to-win, and there are literally 6-10 ads whenever I start up the game.”
- “The constant ads and the fact you have to pay for pretty much the whole game since about 9/10 is only free destroyed my experience.”
- “I would be more than happy to pay $5 or $10 for this without ads and all of the BS that you are trying to make money off of.”

The gameplay is generally praised for its fun mechanics, beautiful environments, and nostalgic feel, closely resembling "Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter." However, many users express frustration over the pay-to-win model and technical issues, such as freezing screens, which detract from the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the variety of creatures and detailed maps contribute to an engaging hunting experience.
- “Very nostalgic and great gameplay, with lots of detail on every map and weapon, and a wide variety of creatures to choose from.”
- “The gameplay is simple and amazing, as well as intimidating when it comes to larger creatures.”
- “Fantastic game, gameplay and a lot of fun.”
- “The gameplay is nearly identical to Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter.”
- “The screen literally freezes after 10 seconds of gameplay.”
- “I'm impressed with the graphics and the gameplay, but I am very unsatisfied with the fact that the store will not work for me. I want the bundles, but I would buy them if it would open. Sadly, it won't, so I'm kind of irritated by the fact that this game does not allow me to access other games and stuff. Personally, I think this is frustrating because the first game, Dinosaur Age, was way better as it allowed you to unlock all the game to hunt, but this one requires buying, and I agree with everyone here that this is disappointing.”
