Let's see the similarities:
Post apocalyptic? Check.
Essentially a Western? Check.
Lone survivor wandering the plains/roads? Check.
Said survivor looking for redemption? Check.
Whilst carrying/quoting from a Bible? Check.
Gunfights and bar-room brawls? Check.
Yes, there are differences - including a very big reveal at the end - but, all in all, there are a heck of a lot of similarities ...

K-Li (5 KP) rated Betrayal at House on the Hill in Tabletop Games
May 25, 2018
Each room added to the house has an event to play out, item to pick up or leave there, or omen that may behave like an event or item but also may trigger The Haunt, depending on die rolls.
The part I enjoyed was strategizing once The Haunt was triggered - once it happens, the scenario you play depends on the room you were in, and the cards drawn. The enemy has their own rule book, and everyone else shares another rule book. It really is great fun.

I think the biggest downside to this game is the amount of things to remember, but I've heard the 2nd edition greatly improved on the first, which is what we played.
Jesters_folly (230 KP) rated Saw (2004) in Movies
Jun 13, 2020
Most of the film focus not on the two trapped men’s escape attempt but on the past couple of days and on the ‘Jigsaw’ killers previous traps which show the events that led to, not only Adam & Lawrence’s imprisonment but also to how Jigsaw is tracked down by the now disgraced Detective Trapp.
The previous trap rooms all seem a lot simpler than the one set up for Adam and Lawrence and this does seem to be the first one that involves people outside the room.
Saw contains a lot of threat, a bit of gore and bodies that died violent deaths but the graphic scenes are no worst than films like ‘Seven’ and, like Seven, Saw doesn’t focus that much on the actual killer but on his actions and the effects they are having on his victims and it only hints at how long Jigsaw has been active for. The one thing I will say about the violence is that it does show consequences, the doctor is shown to suffer after cutting off his foot and, most of the time, shooting and stabbing does lead to injuries.
