Ammunition is scattered across levels that the player must pick up to reload, but players can also explore the level's environments to find secret items including more health, ammo, and weapons that they might otherwise only find later in the game. The player can carry a number of weapons such as twin revolvers with unlimited ammo, shotguns, a minigun, a rocket launcher, a quad laser gun, and a cannon that can kill multiple enemies at a time.

Enemies range from 'Beheaded', which are normal soldiers armed with rocket launchers and energy weapons, to 'Beheaded Kamikazes' who charge at the player while screaming loudly until they explode, to more powerful alien foes such as charging bulls, alien robots with rockets and miniguns, and creatures made of lava that can split themselves into smaller enemies upon death.

The combat is high-paced and frenetic, with each level consisting of a series of elaborate arenas, in which the player will defeat a set number of re-spawning enemies before proceeding to the next. Available health and armor integrity are represented by percentage numbers on the screen. Health and armor are non-regenerative on all difficulty levels except for the easiest and instead are replenished with health and armor packs which are littered throughout the game.

Enemies spawn frequently and attack in large waves from across the game map, and the player is meant to dodge their projectiles and physical attacks by jumping and strafing rather than by taking cover. The game's story establishes the reasons and methods for how the player travels from chapter to chapter through the game's menu system, a brain implant called NETRISCA that also provides hints, descriptions of enemy types, and information on weapons the player collects. Serious Sam: The First Encounter's gameplay consists almost entirely of the player attempting to defeat dozens of enemies at a time in wide open arena-like areas and thus is relatively simple. High-definition remakes of both episodes were released in 20 on Microsoft Windows, and were later ported to the Xbox 360, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One video game consoles.
