Based on Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures' 'Saw' franchise, SAW - The Ride will put riders at the mercy of the series' master manipulator, Jigsaw.

A 'beyond vertical' drop of 100º from a height of 100ft, will make the ride the steepest freefall drop in the world. Riders will also endure three inversions on this, the park's fourth coaster.

The ride features excellent themeing outside the ride and inside the queue with live actors occasionally performing to keep you entertained. The dark-ride section is brilliantly themed with various moving horror objects,and cool sound effects. At the bottom of the main drop there are spinnning blades which rider come extremely close to.
