Dispatch Keyboard & Controller Controls
Adventure games →Dispatch is AdHoc Studio's narrative superhero-agency game where you run a dispatch center of ex-supervillains, making branching dialogue choices between light action beats, hacking puzzles, and occasional quick-time events. The controls are deliberately minimal: point-and-select with mouse or right stick, pick responses with W/A/D or the face buttons, and steer the hacking avatar with WASD. These are the default keyboard, mouse, and controller bindings, viewable and rebindable under the Controls tab of the pause menu.
