* AuthorsSavingThrow: The only way to obtain the character unlock codes in ''HD'' without the use of a guide was to either find them on the backs of certain flavors of Chex Mix, or by scrolling through Chex's official social media profiles. Both the developers and the marketing team seem to have known that this only really worked when the game was new, and later put them on the game's website.

Add the Videogame/BrutalDoom mod onto this game and watch as the Chex Warrior brings out a gun and shoots everything while blood splatters everywhere. Adding to the hilarity is that ''Brutal Doom'' natively supports ''Chex Quest'', and not a case where it just works by chance. Its DECORATE script is even named "[=BrutatChexQuest.txt=]", further confirming that this is very much an intentional feature.

* ScrappyMechanic: One of the biggest complaints against ''Chex Quest HD'' is that the HUD of some of the playable characters is very intrusive due to covering up a lot of the screen, with Fred Chexler's being considered the worst of the lot. The development team later patched the HUD to be smaller in July 2020.
* ThatOneBoss: Both The Flembrane and Flemoidus Maximus replace the Baron of Hell for this series, while the Flembomination replaces the Spider Mastermind and Lord Snofolus replaces the Cyberdemon. They are just as powerful as their Doom counterparts.

* SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames: You wouldn't think that a FirstPersonShooter based on a cereal brand and packaged with said cereal for free would turn out to be any good, but here we are. The games developed a cult following and even saw a third game released over a decade after the original.

* AllAnimationIsDisney: A few sources claim that ''HD'' was made in UsefulNotes/{{Unity}}, most likely due to the basic feel of the game, and the less-than-stellar polish. It was actually made using VideoGame/{{Unreal}} Engine 4. The game even makes this abundantly clear by showing its logo when you start it up.

* GameBreaker: The LAZ (Large Area Zorcher). It is this game's replacement of the [=BFG9000=], so of course it was gonna shoot giant balls of energy capable of covering ''massive'' areas and taking down entire armies of Flemoids. The fact that the game makes it available as early as the second map makes it all the more broken.

* ContestedSequel: Reception for the HD remake is mixed to say the least. Some love the game for being a faithful reimagining of the original, while others see it as a soulless and clunky mess. [[ComplainingAboutThingsYouHaventPaidFor The fact that it's free]] is sometimes used to justify this.
