Entdecker: Exploring New Horizons

[MrNumbers]

Some time ago ran onto this game in the Internet (don't own, never played).
Just curious, maybe someone have ever played this game? What it looks like? Mechanics is similar to Carcassonne (more like Carcassonne: The Castle), as far as I can understand from the description.

I watched a youtube video explaining it.

It definitely, borrows elements from Carcassonne (it was published in 2001) and seems to reward minority-stakeholders in completed features.

The produce token scoring seems to be unbalanced.

eg:
Finish a island, place a scout, takes a look and hides a produce in a hut (so they know if it's worth investing etc) and the closest player wins if there is a tie-break. 

Also the placing on the eye to have a look probably won't work well for 2-player.  Player 1 puts good item in hut.  player1 doesnt need to add any more people, so player 2 wastes a few people to get close to the eye; then player 1 plays a person on the eye to keep it hidden.

I suppose not getting people unless you finish islands makes it more interesting, it would be worth knowing what distribution f tiles are in the game.  I'd give it a go if there was a group of us!
