Dispatch

Dispatch is a game/episodic comedy where you manage a team of dysfunctional misfit heroes. You send them on missions while navigating workplace dynamics.

I loved this game! The pacing, humor, action, and voice acting were excellent.

You can be terrible at this game (and I was) but still finish. You could not touch the keyboard and everything would time out and progress forward, and you’d still complete the game. However, the decisions and I think even how well you do impact the story.

The gameplay was simple but enjoyable. Your job is to decide which “hero” to send on each crisis, like a 911 dispatcher, but for superheroes. Since your character is capable, you get to attempt some hacking along the way.

The best part of the game is the cutscenes. Each episode consists of scenes, your dispatching shift, and closes with more. It’s about 1 hour per episode and there are 8.

Your decisions significantly change the story’s progression and ending, making it easy to replay. I plan to do that soon.
