''The Destiny Map'' was the first scenario in the ''Relics of Power'' adventure trilogy, and was followed by ''[[The Possibility Chalice]]'' and ''The Forever City'', both also published in 1990.
The entire ''Relics of Power'' trilogy was revised for [[Torg#Torg Eternity|''Torg Eternity'']] and published as ''Relics of Power Redux'' by Ulisses Spiele in 2020.<ref>{{cite web |title=Relics of Power Redux (9783963313523) |url=http://www.legrog.org/jeux/torg/torg-2eme-edition-eternity/relics-of-power-redux-en |website=www.legrog.org |access-date=11 September 2021}}</ref>
==Reception== In the July 1990 edition of ''[[Games International]]'' (Issue 16), Paul Mason commended the "non-stop action", and called the adventure "detailed and tightly plotted." But he noted the [[pulp magazine]] tone of the adventure and warned players, "Whether you'll enjoy it depends on how you feel about the pulpishness of the background."<ref name=gi>{{cite magazine|last=Mason|first=Paul| date=July 1990 |title=Torg: Roleplaying the Possibility Wars|magazine=[[Games International]]| issue=16|pages=39}}</ref>
Craig Schaefer reviewed the product in the December 1990-January 1991 issue of ''[[White Wolf (magazine)|White Wolf]]''.<ref name=Sch>{{cite magazine|last=Schaefer|first=Craig| date=December 1990 – January 1991 |title=Capsule Reviews: The Destiny Map|magazine=[[White Wolf (magazine)|White Wolf]]| issue= 24|pages=37–38|url=https://imgur.com/a/liET3wA}}</ref> He stated that various factors make it "a perfect introduction to the Torg game for players and GMs alike. Good B&W artwork and a helpful gamemaster's screen round off this strong opening adventure".<ref name=Sch/> He rated it a 4 out of 5 possible points.<ref name=Sch/>
