When you play Episode 4 of Dispatch, the villain Brainteaser interrupts your shift with a call. He gives you an ultimatum during the Restructure chapter. You can either answer his questions or track him down. I highly recommend picking the dialogue option to Humor the Brainteaser. This path gives the Z-Team free experience points and avoids unnecessary injuries. If you just want the solutions fast, look at the table below.
What we cover:
Quick Answer: All 3 Brainteaser Riddle Answers
| Brainteaser’s Riddle | Correct Answer | Incorrect Options |
|---|---|---|
| What’s my favorite game? | The Wolves Inside Us | The Wolf Within Us, The Wolves Have Eyes |
| What about my favorite movie? | Standing Alive | Staying Alive, Walking Dead |
| Who was my greatest nemesis? | Mecha Man Prime | Mecha Man Astral, Mecha Man Blue |
Should You Humor the Brainteaser or Find the Brainteaser?
Robert has to make a tough call during this dispatch sequence. If you select Find the Brainteaser, you miss out on the easy XP reward. You also force your squad into a difficult skill check. I always choose Humor the Brainteaser instead. It is essentially a free win if you know the right responses.
If you decide to ignore his game, you must dispatch a team to catch him.
- You will need heroes with high Intellect, Vigor, and Mobility stats.
- Sonar or Coupe are great for the intelligence aspect.
- You should pair them with heavy hitters like Golem, Phenomaman or Punch Up.
The injury risk is low but you still lose the bonus rewards.
What Happens If You Give the Wrong Answers?
The developers patched an old bug recently. In earlier versions, you only needed to answer the final question correctly. Now, you must get every single one right.
If you select a trap answer like The Wolves Have Eyes, the game punishes you. The required Intellect check jumps from a very easy level 1 up to a brutal level 10. If you fail this check, a team member gets hurt.
For the last question about his greatest nemesis, the wrong answers are actually Robert’s family members. Mecha Man Blue is Robert himself. Mecha Man Astral is his father, Robbie Robertson II. The correct nemesis is Bobby Robertson I, who operated as Mecha Man Prime.
How Do You Actually Know the Answers in the Game?
If you look for a Dispatch Brainteaser reddit thread, you will see people arguing that these are not even real riddles. They are just a memory game.
Brainteaser expects you to remember the earlier missions from your shift. The answers link directly to the locations where he planted bombs.
- The Wolves Inside Us refers to the Nostalgically Yours call.
- Standing Alive connects to the theater bomb in Theatrically Yours.
- Mecha Man Prime is the replica from the Comically Yours investigation.
If you pay close attention to the dispatch logs, the clues are all there.
