I guess there's some need for a couple hints here:

47: This early 3D PC game is mostly an ego-shooter, but also an adventure game and has some strategy mixed into it.

1. Hint: As long as you have summoned a castle and it is still standing, getting killed will respawn you there, otherwise it's game over.
2. You're not firing weapons, but rather casting spells that you learn from scrolls you can find in the levels.

I'm thinking this is Hexen.

If not, and I can make a second guess, I'd guess Heretic.
