The music in the game, despite consisting of only three tracks—one for the menu, one for cutscenes, and one for general gameplay—is praised for its quality and craftsmanship. Reviewers find it refreshing and immersive, effectively enhancing the overall experience without becoming repetitive.
- “The soundtrack, even though there are only three tracks in total—one for the menu, one for cutscenes, and one for everything else—is not repetitive at all. It is quite refreshing to hear such a finely crafted musical masterpiece, allowing you to get carried into the Witch Sword world.”

The gameplay features a unique and interesting combat mechanic that, while functional and reliable, is hindered by the overall flaws of the game. Despite its potential to shine in a better-designed context, it remains a standout element in an otherwise broken experience.
- “The combat mechanics are unlike anything I've played so far, and they feature interesting mechanics.”
- “The combat mechanics, though in a fundamentally broken game, are still functional and reliable. In another kind of game, they could have made something really cool.”

The story is considered the best aspect of the game by some reviewers, yet it ultimately falls flat and is described as boring, overshadowed by uninspired level design and enemies.
