- Anti-Climax Boss: The witch in both games actually goes down after only a handful of sword swings. The real trick is that you have to fight through a huge level to get to her, and in the final chamber she's accompanied by a large mob of mooks, monsters, and demons.
- Demonic Spiders: The troll enemies that throw a chunk of meat at you. Your armor cannot defend you against their attacks and do a lot of damage.
- Fake Difficulty: Facing the witch and having her use that HP to 1 spell while you are around multiple enemies. Not only will you have your HP set to 1, but the next attack could be your end.
- Follow the Leader: At the time, most reviewers criticized the game for being derivative of Heretic and Hexen due to the similar dark fantasy setting. Witchaven was distinguishable due to its emphasis on melee combat as opposed to ranged spellcasting like in the Heretic/Hexen series.
- That One Attack: The witch's HP to 1 spell.
