History
Change Log
Hotfix 1.2.1d
- Nerf: decreased the Movement Speed bonus to 3/4/5 % per Token.
- Nerf: added a cool-down timer to Token-accumulation.
Patch 3.7.0
- Updated the Perk's description to specify the types of Attack instead of just referring to them as "offensive actions".
Token Acquisition
- Tokens are acquired whenever the Killer's Obsession
escapes a Chase and the Chase Score Event triggers for the Killer.
Due to the current functionality of the Chase mechanic, attempting to force an escape can feel unsatisfactory and sluggish.- Strategies such as turning one's back on the Obsession and losing line-of-sight can accelerate the Token Acquisition, but are unreliable in doing so.
- If the Killer has the ability to cloak themselves at will with the Undetectable
Status Effect, doing so will immediately end the Chase and award a Token.
Attacks and Tokens
- It has occurred in the past that Attack conditions changed without mention in-between Patches.
The list below should therefore be taken with a grain of salt.
The Wiki only guarantees the accuracy of the list until the most recent test for each entry listed below.

Trivia
- Play with Your Food, while not specifically mentioning it, increases all types of Movement speed of the Killer, not just their Walking speed.
- Any time a Killer is not moving at their default Walking speed, Play with Your Food will still apply its bonus towards that, this includes Power-use states, Carrying, Crouching, Stalking, Cool-down states, Wind-up/Charge states, etc.
- Play with Your Food is often abbreviated as the initialism "PWYF".
- Play with Your Food generally does not deplete Tokens on Attacks that are inherently unable to damage Survivors when they hit.
Killer Power Trivia
- As The Cannibal
: each individual usage of a Charge during the Chainsaw Sweep is considered a separate attack and will deplete a Token each.
- As The Twins
: Victor is not considered as a Killer-entity by Play with Your Food, but rather a Power attack.
- This makes it possible to gain Tokens by switching back-and-forth between Charlotte and Victor, which breaks the Chase on the Obsession.
- Despite seeing the Haste
Status Effect on his HUD, Victor does not benefit from the Movement Speed bonus and will deplete Tokens when pouncing.
- As The Trickster
: each thrown Blade is considered a separate attack and will deplete a Token each.
