Despite being out of print for almost three decades, ''The Fantasy Trip'' still has a cult following. Its rules are viewed by its fans as a more elegant version of ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}}'', as the rules were very simple and focused on fantasy. There have been conversions to other settings on the Internet.
