## Gameplay

Margaretha carries around a total of 3 music boxes. She can change the tune of the music box to either make other's actions slower or faster. She can also increase the volume of the music box to increase her vision and also stretch the distance a survivor or hunter can be affected by the music. Fast (red) music will only affect survivors while Slow (blue) music will only affect hunters.

### Tips

* Her fast music boxes come in handy when decoding or opening exit gates, as it increases not only movement speed but decoding speed.
	+ Music boxes will also increase healing speed.
* Slow music boxes can be used in combination with stuns to extend the hunter's stun recovery time.
	+ However, slow music boxes also extend the duration of the time the hunter's hitbox is active, causing them to have a slow but extended attack animation.
* Music boxes can be placed in pallets, which can be dropped on hunters when they are breaking it.
	+ It is recommended to use slow boxes for this purpose, as it wastes more time due to the slow music extending the hunter's stun animation and interaction time of breaking the pallet.
	+ Pallets can also be placed under already dropped pallets, forcing the hunter to break it in order to destroy the music box.
* Music boxes should be used differently depending on the hunters.
	+ If the hunter's chase is slow, it's recommended to use the fast music boxes. (The Bloody Queen, for example.)
	+ If the hunter's chase is fast, it's recommended to use the slow music boxes. (Wu Chang, for example.)

## Trivia

* If Margaretha is idle long enough in the range of the music, she will start dancing. There are two different dances, one for each speed.
* The ability to pick up music boxes and slide was added in July 2021.
* Previously, the music boxes would affect the takeoff speed of rocket chairs.
