What does Game Afoot do?

Whenever you hit the Survivor with currently the highest cumulative Chase time with a Basic Attack, Game Afoot triggers its primary effect:
• Causes the Obsession Status to transfer to that Survivor.
While chasing the Obsession, performing the Break or Damage action causes Game Afoot to trigger its secondary effect:
• Grants a +10% Haste Status Effect for 8/9/10 seconds.
You can only be obsessed with one Survivor at a time.
