* MarketBasedTitle: The game's full title is "Strife: Quest for the Sigil" (or "The Original Strife: Veteran Edition" in the re-release), not "Strife: Trust No One" as the box art might lead you to assume (and as the [=GameFAQs=] walkthrough erroneously calls it). Although in the Veteran Edition, the full game is called "Quest for the Sigil" and the demo game "Trust No One". To add to the confusion, one of the achievements in the ''Veteran Edition'' is also called "Trust No One".

* ManualMisprint: The manual describes the Reaver enemy as being "VERY fast," saying that blasting the area with explosives may be the only effective way to destroy them. In-game, they're faster than most enemies, but not by much. The Demons in the original VideoGame/{{Doom}} are a lot faster.
