Story: I loved the novel version story more. In lakorn version, male lead became softer than novel ones (Plerng, Uthai and Rawi all became softer) and his power should be much more stronger than the villian (Boom and Poh's characters) but in lakorn he just started to learn how to use it. They make Pakboon and Tinnaree less evil but she didn't apologize to Plerng for what she did (in novel she did). They also kill many characters that did not died in novel just to make the 9 people mystery which i feel they can make a better plot than that. The only change that i like is that they make both lead work together more at modern timeline (but i still want more). The story is still interesting thanks to original content from novel but i love novel story more.
Acting: I love James/Taew paring so it's not difficult to feel their chemistry even with the little sweet/ intimated scenes. The biggest gift for me from this lakorn is that i have an open mouth kiss from James/Taew (the first and only time from both of them).
Other characters also did good job for their part.
CG: Much better than other lakorns
OST: Not outstanding but still have some memorial
Overall if i remove the huge expectation i have from reading novel it's still a nice lakorn

I don't watch much Thai tv series and most of them are from CH3 Channel since i like their actors/actresses more than other channels. Honestly, while i was enjoying watching love-hate relationships which Thai Lakorns love, i didn't really like any of them. They are all too dramatic and lost of logic plot only for the sake of angsty.
But Game Sanaeha is my first favourite Thai LaLorn. There is still some unnecessary angst plot but overall it did not let charactors fall deep into hateful category, less stupid conflicts.
Acting are good, I'm not fan of James Jirayu even has not-so-good impression about him before but i love his acting here, it feels natural. His performance as Nai make me love his charactor without feeling attacted to him since i can see them as two different people. Taew is also good, she make it believable that she is younger than Nai. Chemistry between the leads is a phenomenon. It makes this lalorn has high rewatch-value for their sweet scenes.
Charactors: Nai is such a genlte, smart, witty and nice main male charactor. It's easy to fall in love with his charactor. Vi/ Nok's mother is a refeshing character too. Nok has some annoying personality but she is kind, strong and cute enough for me to accept her character. There are still some annoying characters as usual
Weakest link of this lakorn is step mother and her relationship with Nok's Dad, it dragged for too long.
