About this game

The Jigsaw Killer has healed his gunshot wound and has locked him up in an abandoned asylum to teach him a lesson about life appreciation.

Tapp's primary tasks is to explore the building and find an exit, while avoiding or solving Jigsaw's traps and puzzles.
Upon starting the game Tapp is instantly faced with the task of removing a trap known as the Reverse Bear Trap, a mechanism that is set to go off and tear a human head apart.
After getting the trap off his head, he is free to wander a mental institution filled with obstacles such as shotgun doors, broken glass that cuts Tapp's bare feet, and other victims of Jigsaw who are after Tapp because Jigsaw has hidden the key to their traps inside his chest.
Mysteries surrounding the films need to be uncovered, there are different characters to meet and it is possible to see the sets recreated from them.
Tapp's actions affect the outcome of the game.
If he is not careful, in some traps innocents will be killed, and some of those wandering the halls are not violent.
Killing them affects the game's outcome, as well Tapp's ability to save others from certain traps.
The game has two endings, a positive and a negative.
The positive ending is the only ending which is canon to the films, the negative ending is not canon.
Players control Tapp from a third-person perspective, and the game has a combat mechanism very similar to Silent Hill: Homecoming .
He can use various weapons in the environments, however they will break after being used a few times.
Some enemies have traps that may affect their skills; enemies with square shaped traps on their head cannot see but will attack if they can find you, while enemies with dynamite strapped to their hands will explode after death which can harm you, and so on.
Traps can be used against enemies as well; fuse boxes can be switched o
About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks SAW for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding SAW to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2009.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
SAW has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
