Part of the Saw film franchise, the game is set betwe the first and second films.
In Saw, the Jigsaw Killer has healed Detective David Tapp from his gunshot wound, and places him in an abandoned insane asylum to teach him a lesson in life appreciation. Obsessed, Tapp traverses the asylum and gathers clues along the way in hopes of apprehding Jigsaw. As he progresses through the asylum, he counters several people with connections to him, whom he must save. The asylum also has inhabitants who are in games of their own, ordered to kill Tapp. Along the way, Tapp uncovers the origins of Jigsaw and the motives behind his tests. The developmt team brought in the Saw creators James Wan and Leigh Whannell to help with the storyline and create new trap designs for the game.
It was praised for the storyline and multiple dings, as well as the immersive vironmt that is true to the Saw film series. The controls and combat system, however, were panned by critics. Since Konami purchased the publishing rights after former publisher Brash tertainmt wt bankrupt, Konami had a significant input on the games' final outcome. They stated that they had plans to make Saw their next big franchise as well as a spiritual successor to their other survival horror series, Silt Hill. A sequel, Saw II: Flesh & Blood, was released on multiple platforms on October 19, 2010.

Saw is primarily a third-person survival horror game with elemts of the action gre. The player controls David Tapp, a former detective trapped in an abandoned asylum filled with Jigsaw traps. The primary goal of the game is to traverse the asylum and survive traps in order to escape. Tapp has several abilities in the game, such as the ability to search things like toilets and corpses to find items such as weapons, health, or clues he can use to fulfill his objectives. Items such as case files and cassette tapes are found hidd around the asylum, and provide additional information about the asylum's past and give background information about certain victims.
The game's combat system allows the character to block, counter-attack, and perform attacks to fd off emies. There are over eighte differt weapons available to players, including lead pipes, mop handles, firearms, and explosives. Certain weapons may also be used for other purposes, such as cutting op a body to search inside, or breaking down a molding wall to reveal hidd paths. Weapons in the game deplete upon use in real time until they are rdered unusable. As a way to avoid combat, Tapp has the ability to rearm or place certain traps after activating them. For example, he can electrify water puddles or create and place explosive mines on one of "Jigsaw's Worktables". Tapp's health bar, once depleted, can only be restored by bandages or hypodermic needles, which can be stored in an invtory of items. Wh Tapp is losing health, the vironmt slowly fades to black-and-white until Tapp heals himself or dies.
At certain points in the game, the player will be joined by AI teammates that help Tapp. There are many points in the game where multiple paths are available that can be tak to avoid certain areas or uncover hidd items.

Lighting plays a dynamic role in the game. While Tapp begins with a lighter, other light sources such as flashlights or camera flashes can be found later in the game. Minigames are a major part of the game. These include a searching game in which an X-ray view is used to avoid dangers like razors or syringes, and a game that involves grabbing a key before a "Pain meter" fills and wounds Tapp.
Doors rigged with shotguns attached to pulleys are in place all around the asylum. Wh the player counters one of these doors, they must press a randomly assigned button before the pulley falls too far, or the gun will discharge. There are puzzles called "vironmtal traps", in which Tapp must use differt elemts in the vironmt, use the in-game camera, or go to certain locations to accomplish a task.
Saw, like its film predecessors, is set in the fictional Saw universe in an unnamed city in the United States. The overlying storyline follows that of a man named John Kramer. According to the backstory in the film Saw IV, John countered a series of evts, including the loss of his unborn child, his diagnosis of an inoperable frontal lobe tumor, his divorce from his wife, and a suicide attempt that caused him to begin testing other people's will to live. These tests, which ironically killed many of his victims, and the fact that he symbolically carved a puzzle piece out of the flesh of his victims, soon earned him the alias "The Jigsaw Killer" from newspaper reporter Oswald McGullicuty.
