The Evaluation

You wake in a locked room with a television and a coded door.
A hooded figure appears on the screen and explains the rules: solve the puzzles, or people die.
Welcome, detective.

The Evaluation is a first-person horror puzzle game set in an abandoned drive-in movie theater. Explore a dark, interconnected environment filled with ciphers, codes, hidden mechanisms, and disturbing trials designed to test your ability to observe, decode, and survive.
Across the theater grounds you will uncover clues hidden in buildings, underground tunnels, shipping containers, and broadcast equipment. Each puzzle reveals another piece of the system controlling the night’s events.

But mistakes have consequences.
Fail a puzzle and the hunter may come for you.
