Critic Reviews for Dispatch
Dispatch is full of heart and jokes, and it's one of the best superhero TV shows around.
Dispatch is a sharp-witted workplace comedy that charms with its smart dialogue choices, great writing, and lovably aggravating cast.
Dispatch isn't a freeform RPG – it's telling a specific story that it allows you to a degree of authorship over.
Dispatch isn’t a triumph of mechanical innovation. It doesn’t reinvent the narrative adventure game, but it doesn’t pretend to. On the other hand, it delivers one of the most compelling interactive dramas in years, an adult animated superhero story with the emotional punch of prestige television and a script that truly shines. I didn’t want to stop playing just because I needed to know what happened next; I kept playing because I cared who it was happening to.
The spirit of Telltale Games' excellent episodic storytelling feels alive and well in Dispatch, a superhero adventure by developer AdHoc Studio.
Dispatch brings a new narrative experience in a superhero world as a debut work for AdHoc Studio.
Dispatch is everything it needs to be and more. The vocal performances are emotive and captivating. What’s more, the title boasts a compelling story and excellent presentation; it does its damnedest to make your choices actually matter when tailoring your story. Dispatch is busy with heart, charm, and narrative weight.
And with a writing direction that strongly emphasizes character relationships and banter with one another, it is one of the most cathartic video game experiences that I had this year, making me grateful for every minute I spent with Robert and his crew, as well as making me want to support AdHoc in any way possible in a plea for making another season on these whimsy goofballs.
