About

Dispatch is an episodic narrative adventure and superhero management game. Released in eight episodes in the course of a month, two every week, it blends branching storytelling with light strategy and workplace comedy, following Robert Robertson, a washed-up hero formerly known as Mecha Man. After losing his powers and suit, Robert becomes a dispatcher at a Los Angeles hero agency, overseeing missions for a roster of reformed supervillains while navigating office politics and personal redemption.

Gameplay alternates between dialogue-driven narrative scenes and management segments. During story sequences, players make choices that affect relationships, alliances, and long-term outcomes, while the dispatch interface tasks them with assigning heroes to emergencies based on their powers, personalities, and risk factors. Missions unfold through interactive sequences and quick decision points, evoking the structure of classic Telltale adventures.

Structured like an interactive TV series, each episode runs under an hour and ends on narrative cliffhangers. Across the season, new heroes, dilemmas, and workplace conflicts expand the cast and deepen player influence on the story.
