In both series we ask ourselves if the main character is either good or bad. As the action advances we discover his reasons for being like that.

Both series feature school bullying. The script is eventually flipped on the bully however, making the hunter become the hunted.

Both have MLs that are super negative and just blurt out the harsh realities of the world. Gakkou no Kaidan is admittedly more positive, but there’s a similar vibe between the two dramas.

They are both psychological thrillers and despite being based in different settings both main protagonists are steeped in enigma. The intrude into a flawed household and mess with the members in their own demented way for an unclear goal. Although Zeni Geba is considerably darker, they both have a twisted tale that represents the distorted side of human nature.
They're fantastic and the acting is really riveting I especially love the soundtrack that really makes you feel more involved and terrified by every scene.

Similarities
-Both dramas are about working class main characters who sneak into the lives of a wealthy household to expose them.
-[mini-spoiler] There is a recluse son that the family is trying to protect. Neither family is good at it either.
- Nothing is as it seems, and there are several plot-twists in both stories
- Both main leads went through a severe trauma that they are trying to make sure never happens again
-Both households have two sons that are essential to the story
-Both stories tackle narcissism, and how it effects everyone around you
Differences
-Kazoku Game's main male lead is a private tutor, whereas, Mitaraike, Enjou Suru is a house-keeper
- Kazoku Game is surprisingly more violent then Mitaraike, Enjoy Suru
-Kazoku Game is more focused on the family drama ,whereas, Mitaraike, Enjoy Suru is a mystery of who exactly burned the house down
-Personally, I think Mitaraike, Enjou Suru has a happier ending then the conclusion of Kazoku Game
I really recommend both dramas if you like dark, psychological thrillers.

The leads both possess a hidden personality, covering a goofy front with a passion for education. Both dramas deal with the school setting, bad teachers, bullying, and family drama. Both leads are eccentric, charismatic men with a penchant for taking unpredictable actions. If you liked GTO, I highly recommend Kazoku Game.

Both involve families being tested and exposed for what they really are. Both are very dramatic but Kaseifu no Mitazono is more comedic and tackles multiple families whereas Kazoku Game goes deeper and is more suspenseful.
Recommended by Eternalpoem
Both dramas revolve around teaching and school themes. Queen's classroom is set in a school with a teacher with questionable teaching methods whereas Kazoku Game is based on home tutoring, again with confusing methods of so-called 'teaching'. These are both dramas that have the audience constantly guessing as to whether the tutors have genuinely good intentions or whether they are simply bad characters that enjoy making those around them miserable...

Although KG focuses on more of a 'game' category and 35SNK on more of a 35 year old rejoining high school as a student to deal with the modern day problems, they both still revolve around teachers trying to deal with said problems.

I want to avoid sharing too much, so I'll say this:
if you've already seen one, searching for something similar, watch the other

btw, good shows, based off good novels, some good music, not for sweet dreams..

(I think especially if you've found *yourself* in one, you'll like the other)
