The Guided Fate Paradox is a roguelike RPG developed by Nippon Ichi Software and released in 2013 for PlayStation 3. The story follows Renya, an ordinary person who wins a lottery and unexpectedly becomes God, after which an angel named Lilliel escorts him to the realm of Celestia. From there, the two work together toward guiding the fate of humanity. Gameplay centers on navigating procedurally generated dungeons across a story-driven campaign, with an emphasis on combat, character progression, and equipment customization. Players strengthen their gear and build up Renya's capabilities as they push through successive dungeon runs, with the roguelike structure meaning each excursion presents a fresh layout. The combination of dungeon-crawling mechanics with a distinctly offbeat premise — an unwilling deity navigating divine responsibility — reflects Nippon Ichi's characteristically quirky approach to the RPG genre.
