Yu-Gi-Oh!

The main characters love puzzles and are challenged by different people in an episodic fashion. In both series, the protagonist receives an ancient artifact that in a way takes over their mind and solves the puzzle for them (not so much in Kami no Puzzle as the artifact awakens the boy's true power, whereas Yugi actually becomes possessed by the spirit). In both series, the characters risk their lives in solving puzzles. It also has a mention of Egypt and pyramids and how the puzzles began there, which is another factor present in both. I would also recommend YGO Duel Monsters (original Japanese of course) as it has the theme of protagonists being lured into some shady competition against their will. But all in all, this first YGO series is more similar to Kami no Puzzle (and also focuses on various games, unlike Duel Monsters which focuses on just that), though certainly has a much darker and creepier atmosphere.

C is like a grown-yp version of Yu-Gi Oh!; C features older, angstful characters with a lot at stake, participating in the 'games' threw desparation, whilst Yu-Gi Oh features young characters, with a fair deal at stake, participating in a sport.
Hereis where the similarities come in:
- both involve a card game
- both involve various summons
- both involve the 'user' facing danger if they lose
- both feature chracters who have a high drive to be where they are
- both feature characters working their way to the top mainly for their own justified personal gain
