It is primarily hide and seek, secondary is prop hunt. Also some crafting and trading.
If you like teasing hunters and blowing up witches, it's fun.
I don't have gmod so I can not compare.

First, you're not insane to think this is like Prop Hunt. The base principle is the same.

The biggest different from Garry's Mod's Prop hunt are the following parts :

- The way the hunters and props/witches interact.
Prop Hunt is far less forgiving when you, as a prop, are found in comparison to the Witches who "might" have defensive abilities that allow them to either escape or evade the hunter's vision more easily. In such way, you could say that Prop Hunt is more like "Be the bully or the prop" while Witch It is more like "Be clever or even more clever".

For example, in a game I just won as a witch, I was using my Decoy ability to guide the hunters away from my position. Not too much, but just enough so that they tend to shoot the decoy and forget what exactly they shot at or not. (The decoy ability allow you to create a random item and manipulate it by moving it around as if it's a witch. It also shout like a witch when it's hit.)
That's something that, unless they added it, wasn't possible in Props Hunt when I last played it.

It's not just the Witches who got something to defend themselves. The Hunter has abilities that makes the hunt easier. To give an idea, the Hunters' abilities would be like if, in Prop Hunt, you were given unlimited grenades with countdowns that doesn't apply any explosive physics, but instead affect the hidden players. Yeah. That can be quite chaotic.

- The way the map and props are designed.
To be clear, Prop Hunt's map are purposely messes. They reminds me of the kind of backgrounds you find a "Hidden Items" games where it's filled with stuff related to the picture, but also with tons of stuff that are far stretched. Witch It feel a bit more polish in that regard. While it's true that the map are kind of messy, they still sound and look alright. This make it easier for the Witches to truly become part of the environment. If I had to explain how I feel about it, I would point that, in Prop Hunt, there's always something about the environment that seems off. Kinda like how you would find a pair of rusty scissors on the desk in an office. That is due to the limitation of the available model in Garry's Mod default assets which is based on Half Life 2's maps and Counter Strike maps. Witch It doesn't have this kind of limitation since all the models are crafted especially to fit in their environment in both look and subjectivity.

- Witch it is less buggy and exploitable
One thing that is clear about Garry's Mod Prop Hunt is that it's a buggy mess. By that, I don't mean that it's broken or that it's unplayable, but more that there are tons of stuff that can be exploited in it which makes Prop Hunt quite both a fun, but sometimes, a raging experience.
That's due to the limitation of the Source Engine when it comes to physics and some of the key features that are used for the Prop hunt. I remember how Prop Hunt had this thing where you could hide your collision behind an indestructible part of the environment which made you mostly invulnerable. (Some boxes had their hit detection area just a bit below the ground.)

If I had to give you an idea of how different Garry's Mod Prop Hunt and Witch it are different, you could say that Witch It is kinda like DOTA during its early initial stage as a standalone while Prop Hunt is the mod/map in Warcraft 3. Obviously, both have the same kind of feeling to them, but Witch as DOTA is much more polished toward a more fun experience.

This is my opinion still.

I have Garrys Mod but Prop Hunt there is like a proof of concept quality mode whereas this is a properly made game with much higher quality.
Prop Hunt in Gmod was rather a thing that entertained me for maybe half an hour. Witch it is played by me and a friend for over 2 hours straight sometimes.
Its just more polished, fleshed out, with more ideas and content, a unique style that i think is funny and for sure it ever gets us into weird and fun situations and so a lot of laughter.
It has more going for it.
Treat it as an upgrade. gmod prophunt is a bad demo, Witch it is the upgrade to a proper game.
