SAW Game for PC was a promising project that due to the economic crisis, remained unfinished until Konami took the reins of the project. With the pull of its name and the possibilities that are shuffled at the thought of a video game based on Saw, this survival horror has been followed very closely. Especially for her fans. Now, with its output in Europe just around the corner, the macabre world of Jigsaw be explored a bit more. Although, surely, everything is just another trap.
Chronologically, the Saw video game is at the crossroad between the first and second film-just the best of the saga. The game has a development and a completely original story, familiar characters and will complement some disturbing facts and unresolved direct films. For starters, the main character with which he starts the game is Detective David Tapp. With our control, it is time to “play” as both Jigsaw likes to say.
The first thing that stands out from the work of Zombie Studios is in appearance. Undoubtedly, the atmosphere of the films, these scenarios closed, gloomy, dirty and macabre, is intact. It gives the game the darkness and the details necessary to have a constant reminder set in each of the Saw movies and nowhere in particular. Putting the design aside, the fact is that the Unreal Engine 3 used for the game in question has enough ups and downs. There are details to frame a high level. But the overall computation of the game is too rough. So we will see characters like the main, cherished and studied. Others, however, only highlights his supporting role with them. If we include some textures just worked, the end result is below what one might expect.
One of the most significant setbacks in this asylum prepared for death and madness, is the lack of variety. The scenarios seen and the rooms where the action takes place are very similar with each other, giving a feeling of little work when mounting the stage. Remember the film. But the problem is when a concrete room just to remind the chamber that we had left behind. Asylum has plenty of places to visit and where to try to survive, and although it would not be logical to a building with different rooms, do the sets and staging that in principle paves the enemy could have varied details.

Development can be divided into two parts of the game. In one, Jigsaw game offers the most macabre puzzles and riddles at hand. It’s the most comforting of Saw, the videogame. Not only because it is better done together, but because the presence of Jigsaw have constantly up with their moral dilemmas, their games, solving the same puzzle-based, Quick Time Events or exploration, and manages to convey the tension that draws on the essence of the films. Although in this case, whose turn it is to fix things the player in person rather than being a mere spectator. Time, as in movies, running against the hero. And the voice of Bell helps to stress more so. The speaker is the real Jigsaw, not an imitator. 
The enemy will attack more or less successfully, with all kinds of missiles. Similarly, the main character can be equipped with any object to eliminate potential executioners. And at the peak are some mistakes.
Saw PC Game Controls: The controls just do not respond right away, and its vagueness makes the battles are tedious. Try to do something against it, but as the character’s response is not consistent with our order in command, will be a disposable option. Fortunately, there seems to abound these situations too, though it could save as openers to Jigsaw puzzles.
The secondary characters have more weight in the game also will be in the puzzle, thereby emphasizing the role of residual action moments. There are anonymous who want to escape. These are people connected in one way or another to the protagonist. A fact which apparently so far, can give much play to both the main plot and moral decisions that the macabre serial murderer intends to propose to the detective and star of this game. 
When Konami took over the draft Saw, were convinced to try creating a new saga in the acclaimed survival horror genre. A gender-peak periods, in which none of the biggest names given height. Resident Evil 5 abandoning the path of fear in favor of action and Silent Hill repeating formulas already used in the past. The Saw franchise has, by topic, all the ingredients needed to deliver a terrifying experience. Despite this, and failing to test the final version, it seems the work of Zombie Studios has plenty of room for improvement to be not only a product suitable for fans.

Hi, I have downloaded saw pc game demo free but I have difficulties on conrolling
You explained a little in the paragraph: “Saw PC Game Controls”
But I still do not get how to control saw the game on pc ?
LOL the controls are different but not difficult, it takes a little time to learn!
I think this is one of the best horror game in the history!
What are the other top 5?
For me top horror pc games are:
1. Resident Evil 2 (PC version)
2. Fear Effect 2: Retro Helix
3. Silent Hill 1 (PC)
4. Hungry Ghosts for pc
5. The Suffering PC Game
What are the others?
For tihs game I am not really so sure if this is going to be a success or not. But it would be interesting if they could have sent out some demo/trial versions for people to try it out first . Based on the Cinema Movies and Yes i did love them but i do not know if the pc game could succeed only because we have already seen how majority of these people beated thse traps or know how do they work.
I SAW the game!
pcgametrek.com is a really useful site to find cool popular pc games. Definitely one of the best game review site out there!
Hello I AM A FAN OF SAW!
The decision may lead to the most cruel death, you can imagine. We must think and act quickly! Time is important.
SAW PC FAN
The first impression the game is unfavorable. It’s a game after it becomes repetitive scenes, with a control in the combat system deficient and that presents a challenge in the puzzles, pretty bad. The only challenge I felt was when the missions were spent no time, because the control is less responsive and therefore frustrates you to perform actions but the game does not respond. . From my point of view. . . . . Jigsaw prefer to commit suicide and only this game would be so fun.
And eye for those who are angry, reason why I play this title, was to show him what I said was true. . It is a bad game, bad control. . . . . but you can not expect much from a game based on a franchise such as SAW. So I write this mini-review with facts, after playing it.
On the crack version of the game brings their little problems with the controls for PC.
Looking at the other reviews and comments I see that saw game controls had some problems even with the paid original versions.
For people who dont know; Saw is a game in the third person is between the first and the second film in the game you take control of Detective David Tapp (black detective from the first film) than his obsession with catching jigsaw falls from grace, A day awakens in a mental hospital to find out who the murderer was captured by forcing him to play one of their deadly games.
If you can solve the problems with saw game controls thats the best for PC Gamers.
can soneone tell me the controls i cant pass the first trap
Don’t forget, that’s a game that you die.
You have to turn the mouse the way it says on screen and watch the trap you’ll see a number for a second!

Thank you so much for this article. I love such games. Finally something interesting can be read in the Internet.
to be honest, i have watched this horrific movie, but i don’t know this game is horrific as well as this film, i think i’ll try it
Have you ever held a passing interest in survival horror games but always felt they weren’t quite twisted enough? Maybe you’d rather replace the zombie dogs of Resident Evil 5 with a puzzle that requires you to fish a key out of a toilet bowl filled with syringes? Don’t worry; we won’t judge you. Instead, we’ll kindly point you in the direction of the upcoming video game adaptation of the Saw movies. Published by Konami and developed by Zombie Studios, Saw seeks to disturb and horrify gamers in the same way the movie franchise has been doing for the past five years.
I have grown up watching SAW movies and playing SAW game will be a treat for me.

Someone know how lay trap in saw’s game for pc???
Yes I know how to lay trap in saw game:)
Select the stun trap using RB the press then hold LT and then press RT. (lay trap : R2)
This will make you drop the item and when the enemy steps on it, it is going to explode.
The first thing in this game is Reverse Bear Trap. I saw that many people have difficulties on saw video game controls. This is not a difficult game! You must hit the flashing button really quick! Do that 3 times and remove it from your head.

I loved the pictures of this game
Great review, I am also addicted to saw movies, I will try this game…
you have to use your mouse and turn it like the arrow… then when you see a flashing number eg 2 ou have to press number 2 (above w) then you do this 3 times and the mask will be taken out.
