Dispatch HQ
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Command the chaos. Save the city.

Dispatch HQ puts you in charge of an entire city's emergency response. Build fire, police, and EMS stations across a real road map, recruit and train your units, then answer the calls as they come in — structure fires, cardiac arrests, high-speed pursuits, hazmat incidents, and more. Every second counts, every unit matters, and the city is counting on you.
Build your city's lifeline
Start from a single station and grow into a full command. Place stations where the city needs them, hire the right mix of fire, police, and EMS crews, and train them up so they respond faster and handle tougher incidents. Your layout is your strategy — a badly placed station is the difference between saving a neighborhood and losing it.
Answer real-time emergencies
Missions spawn live across the map with real road routing. Dispatch the closest unit, manage response times, and clear the incident before it escalates. Some calls are routine. Others spiral into multi-stage emergencies — a structure fire that spreads, a pursuit that turns into a hostage situation. The city doesn't wait for you to be ready.
Take command of real cities
Expand beyond your first city and unlock new maps, each with its own streets, traffic, and challenges. Bigger cities mean bigger incidents — and bigger rewards.

๐ Membership & Coins — what's coming to Dispatch HQ
You asked, we're building it. Here's the honest roadmap for how Dispatch HQ stays free while we add optional support for players who want to go deeper.
The web game stays FREE. Always. Every core feature — building stations, recruiting and training units, dispatching to missions across real cities, forming alliances, seasonal events — remains free for everyone, forever. No paywalls on missions, no "energy" systems, no content gated behind a subscription.
Membership (planned $9.99/month) — an optional commander tier for the dedicated:
2ร credits on every payout — grow your fleet and expand to new cities faster
2ร training speed — your units learn, level, and unlock better capabilities twice as fast
A membership badge on your profile and in alliance chat, because flexing is part of the fun
The numbers above are the current design (they're literally in the game's economy config) — final pricing and perks may shift before launch, and we'll announce exact details when the store goes live
Coins — a separate optional currency for cosmetics and convenience, never for power:
Station skins and unit liveries — make your fleet yours
Commander titles and profile flair
Convenience items like instant relocations (only if you'd rather not grind the credits for them)
Nothing that buys a competitive advantage. No pay-to-win, ever.
What we're NOT doing (so you know the guardrails):
No ads. Ever.
No loot boxes or gambling-style mechanics
No selling gameplay power — coins buy cosmetics and convenience only
No locking existing free content behind payment
Timeline — we're targeting this for a future update after the October 27 full-platform launch. Both promo codes from launch are still live in-game:
๐ DHQ-LAUNCH — 10,000 credits + 500 XP
โก DHQ-E9P4-8RX7 — limited bonus code (25 uses)
Feedback wanted. If membership perks or coin items feel too strong or too weak, tell us in the comments here or on the game's community pages. The economy is still being tuned, and player input is what makes the balance right.
Until then — the city needs you. ๐๐๐
