Warp Zone

"Slime Cat" redirects here. For the Slime-type foe with numerous possible visual appearances, one of which is a cat, see Furry Slime.

The Warp Zone is a quick travel center in the Epic Battle Fantasy series, presented as a pocket dimension. It allows the player to instantly teleport to any checkpoint on the world map you have reached. There is usually one checkpoint per area, appearing as crystals in EBF3, and friendly Slime Cats starting in EBF4, each stylized like the area it's from. To teleport, simply walk up to and interact with the object.

Epic Battle Fantasy 3

Full Warp Zone in EBF3

In EBF3, crystals are typically found right before the boss of the area, with an exception to Vegetable Forest's crystal, which can be accessed right after defeating the boss. There are a total of six crystals, one for each area minus the road to the final boss. Note that each crystal has to be used at least once to activate it in the Warp Zone, else it cannot be warped to.

Epic Battle Fantasy 4

Full Warp Zone in EBF4, including Premium content

In EBF4, Slime Cats are typically found halfway through an area. There are a total of ten Slime Cats in the free version of the game and twelve Slime Cats in the Steam version and the updated Premium Pack. Using one for the first time gives players the Slime Cat medal, while finding all ten/twelve (depending on whether you have Premium content or not) unlocks the Slime Cat King medal. Interacting with each one is no longer required to activate them in the Warp Zone — simply finding them is enough.

There are twelve Slime Cats in total. The Slime Cat that leads to the Temple of Trials is exclusive to the deluxe Steam version, and can only be accessed when the four optional dungeons' bosses are defeated. The Slime Cat that leads to The Great Sea was introduced in the v2 update, and thus is also exclusive to the Steam version.
