Special-effect and negative buffs ("debuffs") are each handled individually, independently of standard food- and drink-derived buffs: only one instance of each of these buffs can be active, and they are unaffected by other types of buffs. The special-effect buffs are "Adrenaline Rush", "Oil of Garlic", "Squid Ink Ravioli Buff", "Warrior Energy", "Monster Musk", and "Yoba's Blessing"; the negative buffs are "Burnt", "Darkness", "Frozen", "Jinxed", "Nauseated", "Slimed", "Tipsy" and "Weakness".

For example, drinking an alcoholic beverage makes the player "Tipsy". Drinking another alcoholic beverage replaces the first "Tipsy" effect with a new one (the magnitude remains -1 speed, but the duration is reset). Consuming any other drink or food (including ones with buffs) will not remove the "Tipsy" effect -- at best, +1 Speed buff (''e.g.,'' from Coffee) can be used to counteract the -1 Speed.

Typically, 43 real-time seconds are equivalent to one game hour. (7 real-time minutes are 10 game hours.)

Typically, 43 real-time seconds are equivalent to one game hour. (7 real-time minutes are 10 game hours.)

However, time in [[Skull Cavern]] runs more slowly: one game hour lasts 54 real-time seconds. (Except in multiplayer games and on Prehistoric Floors, which revert to 43-second hours). So one cup of [[Coffee]], that normally would last for two hours, will only last for one and a half hours in the Skull Cavern.

All buffs are cleared once the player sleeps.
