New old German game discovered

I'm very excited to have found what appears to be an unknown ZX81 game. It's a German game in Basic, called 'Enterprise' (as in Star Trek Enterprise themed) and is by Kilian Schlaich, originally published by ISS (Juergen Schumpich, who was the main Sinclair German importer back in the day, I believe). There isn't as much online about German games as there is for English language ones, so perhaps it's quite common, no idea.
I was even able to contact the author, and he'd almost forgotten about it, but owned up to it and was transported back to 1982 when I showed him some screen shots.
It has it's original cassette case, which isn't very exciting. It looks like some kind of boring business software with the name 'Enterprise', so I can't imagine it would have sold all that many at the time.
I also have another 3 German ZX81 games for which I can find no mention online.
