The first entry in the long-running Saw franchise took the world by storm in 2004, despite its relatively simple setup: Two men wake up to find themselves trapped in a grimy bathroom and are forced into a claustrophobic game of life or death -- a game where they get to choose the outcome, although the odds are stacked against them. The film got a leg up on other horror pics that year and spawned a sprawling universe populated by crooked cops, secret schemes, and nefarious traps, all orchestrated by Jigsaw himself -- or so it often seems.

With so many players in this long-running game of will and retribution, it's worth taking a look back over the events of the films to see how the pieces all fit together. Here's the entire Saw franchise timeline explained.
