Quest Against Time Reviews
Eurobricks
“The second largest set in the Prince of Persia theme doesn't seem to be looked on with much enthusiasm by AFOLs, perhaps because it doesn't have the eye-catching design of the Battle of Alamut or any of the unique animals in the smaller sets.”
Brickset
“The set is built largely in two parts. The first part features a lot of booby traps to keep people away from where the Dagger and Sands of Time are at. The second part is set higher up to try and recreate the scenes where characters climbed.”
