From Whispers in the West page notes

What was said about Whispers in the West

  • Whispers in the West adds a time limit and co-op to detective play. A ticking time limit caps how much evidence players can gather. Up to four players can team up, compare notes and argue over the best explanation.

    It is cited as an example of raising tension in the accusation moment, alongside Paradise Killer's one-shot courtroom where the game never confirms whether you were right.
