There are many zones that you can explore in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars. However, there are some restrictions if you’ve just started the game. You’d have to progress a bit further if you wish to have the means to go back and forth different areas on a whim. Here’s our Asterigos: Curse of the Stars fast travel guide to help you teleport to different zones in the game world.

Asterigos: Curse of the Stars fast travel guide — How to teleport to different zones
Early-game bonfires and Quintus the Merchant
There are several fast travel points in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars. They act much like bonfires in Souls-like games. By default, only the “Rest” action is available, allowing you to replenish your health and energy to full, while causing all regular enemies to respawn. As far as fast travel goes early in the game, there are a couple of items that you’ll need:
- Rhodos Symbol – This is akin to a town portal. You’ll return to the Shelter (i.e., hub/safe zone).
- Etherite Sliver – This teleports you to the last fast travel point that you interacted with (not counting the one in the Shelter).
These items can be picked up as loot from chests or enemies, though they’re also sold by Quintus the Merchant. Quintus is an NPC that you’ll meet as part of a main quest in the Black Streets, one of the first zones that you’ll visit. Soon, he’ll go to the Shelter to offer his wares.
Unlocking the Teleport function in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars
For the next few hours, you’ll simply need to traverse areas normally and do the main quests in the Black Streets, Arges Bazaar, Stella Mine, and Phalan Academy. After beating the bosses there — and making sure that you’ve done the tasks so as to trigger the respective cutscenes — head back to the Shelter and talk to Minerva. She’ll tell you that there’s a way to power up the conduit.
Interact with the fast travel point in the Shelter and you’ll be taken to Laurel Craft. Minerva will also hand you the key to a vault. Go up the stairs and cross the walkway to reach the opposite side.
Drop down the courtyard and take out the colossus, then open the gate to reach a narrow pathway.
Immediately to your right after seeing the echo, you’ll see a passage to a basement. Follow it and watch out for the traps. At the end of this section, there’s a wall that can be opened using the vault key. The room here has a quest item that Minerva needs.
Instead of going back the way you came, check the other room and take the stairs to the ground floor. The chest here has a mimic, and it drops a trinket design.
Unlock the door here so you can return to the previous courtyard where Minerva is.
After a short conversation, you’ll now have the means of teleporting to different fast travel points in Asterigos: Curse of the Stars. This is only possible for the ones that you’ve already tagged, so make sure you interact with these objects while exploring.
Note: Press and hold “R” in the Teleport menu to return to the Shelter.
Asterigos: Curse of the Stars is available via Steam.
