The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Xero]

Bad Trip is one of....no, forget that, THE best mud I have ever
played. I've looked at most of the MUDs on MudConnector and I haven't
seen a mud as good as this one.
First off, the token system. On Bad Trip there is an ingenious,
unique token system, which acts as currency. There are IMMtokens
and IMPlementor tokens. 150 Imm tokens gets you an Imm Luvin,
which is a pack of usable tokens that you can use to beef up your
character or personalized equipment for you and you only. 150 IMP
tokens gets you a pack of really great tokens and great equipment.
These IMP luvins are a favorite for many, and the hunt for tokens
is half the fun of the game!
There are 300 levels in this game that you can reach. Reaching these
levels is nonetheless a good challenge, but when you get to 300,
there is so much more to do. Some things include collecting equipment
to beef out your stats, getting tokens to fix your equipment (50 Con
and 5 int on a piece? Not so with a Stat Swap! Now you have 5 con and
50 int! What a plus!), participating in Imm quests, which some are
the greatest I've ever played ever before. There is more to do at
level 300 than there is leveling up to 300- I was in doubt about what
to do before I reached 300, but now, I'm trying to max myself out.
The clans are not like normal clans. There are no Clan Signets. To
get in a clan, you must be a dedicated Roleplayer. Posting (and
reading) Roleplay notes are both very fun. The clans are amazing;
special and very unique. Clan spells are great, and the equipment is
some of the best you'll ever find. Hard and long, but worth it.
Uniques- special equipment that is loaded onto the mobs and random
points and have random stats on them. Most of the times the stats
are worthless, but sometimes you'll find a killer stat on a Unique.
You can then proceed to add HP, Mana, Damroll, Hitroll, and switch
around the stats using tokens to make the unique perfect, an
ingenious system.
I haven't even got to half of the whole of what Bad Trip has to
offer you. Great colors, and a really friendly Imm staff. Our imms
are some of the friendliest you'll ever see around, most of whom were
once players on the Mud. There are immquests throughout the week,
one per day. The prizes are really good and will help you alot.
If you don't want to wait around for an Imm quest, there is a mob
called Vel who gives out mortal quests for Quest Points.
So much stuff to do. It's ALOT of fun. Some people might go as far
as calling themselves Bad Trip addicts. It's worth checking out. Play
it. And when you log on, look for Xero- I'll help ya out, just say
Xero sent you. Hope to see you on the greatest mud out there!
