Thanks for sharing @Willem !

The meeples look like laser-cut and the tiles must be stickers... A very decent play testing set though!

Are there any news on HOW it's played?

You can see a short time lapse of the game here:

The game teased with less prototype-ish artwork.

The link seems to send me to a different post by them every time I click.
Maybe this link will work better?

Niceeee! Getting closer and closer!

I am very happy to see HiG incorporating thematic elements again, such as the graveyards and haunted castles. They could have easily slapped some sort of symbol on the tiles instead!

Looking forward to the rules related to those elements, especially how the game will integrate as an expansion to Carcassonne when not played stand-alone, as I suppose it will lose (some of) its cooperative elements then. The fact that it was called the 11th expansion gives hope. I think it means that combinations with other big expansions will be covered!

And, by the way, monasteries seem absent in this prototype! It makes sense, as the normal rules do not allow for cooperative scoring of such a feature. Maybe one of the new elements will replace its mechanic, allowing for multi-ghostbustermeeple scoring.

@carcie where it was?

During the video, it is referred to as a new spin-off and also the 11th expansion at the same time

AA. I miss that. Cool. I see this. As standalone playable expansion partly similar to wheel of fortune. But I guess the main marketing will be that it's standalone unique cooperative game compatible with regular Carcassonne.
This will make this game interesting for every players.
If they will release it as only new large expansion, they will be able to ask plus/minút 15-17 eur and it will be interesting only for a some subset of existing Carcassonne players.
When it released as standalone game price can be more that 25. Truth is that it also requires more game components.
I still hope for frozen dust ghost meeples

Hi, I played the prototype game today.
It's interesting, but the rules are not yet finalised.
The people who explained the game to us didn't know everything themselves, that there are still changes to the rules.
You have to get used to the fact that it is a cooperation game, you are used to scoring points for yourself, which is of course wrong in this game. Because then you lose (all of you).
