Superhero narrative romp Dispatch, judging by the two episodes that I’ve played so far, is rad. It’s an evolution of the Telltale style—from Telltale vets unsurprisingly—that tightens up the format and shakes off some cobwebs.

Since its reveal I’ve been asking myself if you can iterate on something like PowerWash Simulator enough to reasonably justify a sequel, and I don’t know why I’m so surprised the answer is yes, absolutely you can.
