Box
This is one of my first Kingdoms set. As usual, the front are just box art, while the side are the 1:1 minifig scale. The back shows one of the function and another nice box art. Although this set do not have much playability, but is one of the way to get your horse armor and also knight helmet. Below are the box art:

Minifigs
We get three minifigs from this set. The new knight helmet looks good and you can add another fine knight into your collection.

Talking about the horse head armor, it is separately packed together with the horn. The armor actually makes the horse looks fierce.

Prison Carriage
This prison carriage is really small and the prisoner can't even move. Well, is lucky for the rider as the prisoner might just took the spear and pierce it through the rider since there is a big bap behind the seat. Perhaps he can choke him too.

The only things that can be played with is the opening cell and movable wheel. (_ _")

The horse seems grumpy, the army from the dragon faction must have ill-treated this horse.

Extra pieces
There are four pieces left after done assembling. Looks to be a good accessories for your spare knight. The other cheese slope are actually dark green.

Completed model
The set is actually not bad as you can get the new helmet for the knight and the horse as both the parts serve to separate the theme from the other castle theme. So is a good set to get them. Here's a simple completed model shot by me.

Playability: 6/10 For a small set like this, we can't expect much playability.
Design : 6/10 The prison is too small.
Price : 6/10 The price is somehow reasonable and in an affordable range.
Overall: 6/10 Good accessories, and three minifigs with a horse.
