Louis Le Prince was a French inventor known as one of the pioneers of cinema. Many film historians see him as the father of film. Le Prince spent his childhood in the photography studio of his father's friend, Louis Daguerre. Here he learned the mechanical and chemical processes of photography. However, Le Prince wanted to go further than capturing a single image in a photograph; he also wanted to find a way to capture moving images. He first developed a camera with 16 lenses that each took a picture one after the other, so that together they could make a film of 16 images. After many improvements and further developments to this device, he was the first to arrive at a camera with a single lens. He had to apply for a patent in New York for this special invention. He had to be quick because for several weeks he had the feeling that he was being followed, as if someone was constantly watching him… Le Prince decides to hurry and get to the station as quickly as possible. Once he arrives at the platform, he notices that he has his prototype with him but has forgotten his plans. He doesn't dare to go to the studio anymore, so he contacts the only ones who can help him: you! He asks you to go unnoticed to his studio to find his plans and bring them to him before the train leaves.

The setting was beautiful, with a wonderful attention to detail. The puzzles, though, ranged from "pretty good" to "frustrating and a little arbitrary."
One puzzle (which reminded me of a classic children's board game) was very clever. Another one felt arbitrary and impossible to get without extensive hints. Most of the others fell in between.
A beautiful environment that engaged all 5 senses.

Le Princ was our fourth and final stop for the mini Escape Tour in Belgium. It is definitely a step above, showcasing the evolution of Escaping Belgium’s craft. At just 3 years old, it’s a modern masterpiece with extraordinary attention to detail and an incredible theme. The puzzles were a highlight—smart, challenging, and seamlessly integrated into the story. While we played as a group of six, the room would be more enjoyable with four or five players to avoid overcrowding during puzzle-solving moments. Wouter, the owner, made the experience even more memorable with his passion and enthusiasm, taking the time to chat about the escape room industry and his creations. This room is an absolute must-play and is easily one of my top 5 in Belgium. It’s also very much Terpeca- worthy still!
Perfectly done puzzling, flow and design.
Superb attention to details.
Wouter was really warm and welcoming.
