“WITCHAVEN IS A FANTASTIC GAME. IT HAS ALL THE FEATURES THAT MADE DOOM POPULAR (CONTAGIOUSNESS, CRUELTY, DYNAMICS) BUT MUCH MORE THAN THAT.”

WHAT'S INSIDE THIS RELEASE

You're getting two builds: patched (Enhanced) and retail (Original) for those of you who prefer an unaltered experience as a bonus. Both builds are running on DOSBox with a custom configuration tool. The Enhanced build features fixes introduced in EGwhaven, a must-have community project, which addresses an array of bugs and issues with the game (we'd like to thank ETTiNGRiNDER for the contribution to this release). Additionally, the controls are re-mapped to what you'd expect to see as a default in a first-person game nowadays.
