I have played 2 and 4 players game and those are very different experience on the strategy levelIn 2 player's game you are half covered on food and you can easily fix it with some discovery token or if you are lucky and one of the player is a cook by building his item!
So you have all of your item free to explore/build and i found myself not taking too many risks.
Playing 2 players with Friday and the Dog is a GREAT help and makes the game a lot easier. Just the dog grants you a successful exploration each round and that is a lot out of 4 pawns!
When i played this game in 4 the food issue is a lot more complex to be solved, especially at the beginning, when you cannot hunt and you "waste" a lot of action for the food
Because of this you are somehow forced to take risks on exploration and building
