Effect Explained
Stealth Candy's effect is **detection-focused**: your Stealth increases by **25% for 8 seconds** (12 with Glazed Fondant Bag).
Stealth governs how quickly Twisteds notice you. A 25% boost makes you harder to spot during the window, which lets you do risky things — crossing a room a Twisted is patrolling, moving past a Machine it's guarding, or repositioning without triggering a chase. The short 8-second base duration means it's a timing tool: you use it for a specific movement, not as a long-term cloak. In situations where running would make noise or attract attention, Stealth Candy is the cleaner solution. [社区共识]
