“ | I want to play a game. | „ |
~ Pigsaw's catchphrase. |
Pigsaw (whose name was changed to Jigtrap in the Spanish versions of the latest games) is a recurring character in the point-and-click videogames created by the indie group Inkagames (also known as Mazniac and Dark Dome), serving as the titular main antagonist of the Saw Games series, the titular main protagonist of Pigsaw Final Game and the titular deuteragonist of Obama and Pigsaw's Gift and Obama & Pigsaw versus Aliens. He's a sentient robotic puppet who forces people to play his games, believing to be helping them to be better in their life ahead, or simply kidnapping celebrities by the fans' request.
He was formerly voiced by Inkagames founder Aldo Mujica.
What Makes Him Magnificent?[]
- He's extremely intelligent and skilled, having the knowledge of a scientist, always managing to force his victims to play his games (in one way or the other) and always getting away with his crimes.
- He genuinely believes he's helping his victims to be better in their life ahead with his games.
- Since he's a family-friendly parody of Jigsaw, he's far from too bad or unpleasant.
- His games can actually be won and if they ever require the player to kill someone to progress, it's always going to be an actual villain and never an innocent person.
- While he was kidnapped by Obama at some point, he was able to think on his feet and almost escape.
- It's also worth mentioning that the whole thing was actually just a dream of Pigsaw himself, so it doesn't detract from his magnificence in the slightest.
- He warned Obama that Santa Claus needed help (albeit, only because he wanted to receive his own present).
- He helped Obama stop an alien invasion by developing a formula able to turn the aliens into lizards, and he did so with seemingly no selfish interest in mind.
What Makes Him A Baddie?[]
- While his intentions might be good, he still forces people to play deadly games, either kidnapping them or those dear to them.
- It's also worth mentioning that many of his victims are innocents who don't actually deserve to be forced into his games, and sometimes he kidnaps people simply because the fans requested it.
- He also isn't above kidnapping or forcing children to play his games (although he isn't willing to blackmail literal babies into playing).
- It's also worth mentioning that many of his victims are innocents who don't actually deserve to be forced into his games, and sometimes he kidnaps people simply because the fans requested it.
- He destroyed the lab where he was created.
- When he was a kid he burned a car, assaulted a supermarket and even planted a bomb in a school, and to this day feels no regret for all this whatsoever. This however doesn't make him too much of a baddie since it's offscreen villainy and is mostly played for laughs.
