Facts: 
You set a variety of traps (one that 'springs' to mind is a spring loaded spike trap).   
The main protagonist was female.   
 
Probably: 
 I think there was a square grid. 
You were given a setup period and then you would watch stuff happen but would still run around during this time, possibly triggering traps manually. 
You would unlock more traps as you progressed through the game. 
 
Maybe: 
Some sort of evil knight was a bad guy type. 
It looked like it happened in one giant castle.
 
I think it was PS1 because it was around the same time that I had to buy PS1 Diablo because I kept it for 2 months from a rental place. 

Thanks!

For the sake of the darkside, I'm going to argue that the PC is the 21st century muscle car... it's one of the best at what it does, even though it's noisy and inneficient, and there's only a select few willing to take the money and time to assemble a remotely competetive car.  In the mean time you can all rock on in premade German cars or modified Honda lawnmower sound-alikes that get the job done for much less.  We can be part of a dying breed and/or one of many hobbyists who get lumped with rip-off artists and pirates or join the masses of faithful BMW and Audi buyers actually enjoying their cars without taking much if any shit from hobbyists or environmentalists.   
 
If you didn't understand the metaphor than piss off, I don't have time for you.
