Description
Named for its vibrant tapestries, the scarlet fortress is a deconstructed mass of forgotten castle, drifting endlessly in the void of the clockworks. Strange beastial ghosts haunt its long corridors, tirelessly pursuing those that enter their domain.
Notes
The Scarlet Fortress has been available for exploration since release 2011-04-04 when the game officially launched.
It differs significantly from other areas in composition and stratum behavior. An aesthetic fire environment is present that does not influence the denizens of its halls. It has special castle-like structures and decorations somewhat similar to Candlestick Keeps, Royal Jelly Palace, and Firestorm Citadel, sharing the same icon shape with the Palace and Citadel.
Each level map is fixed (vs. composed of random segments). When accessible via the arcade, they are most often in a rotation of three per depth.
Levels are populated by a variety of Kats and Jelly Cubes. A few Gun Puppies appear in certain levels. Numerous monster cages add to diversity in Cravat Hall variants.
The Scarlet Shield item is associated with this area.
Strategy
- Pending - elemental sword (covers kats and is fine against slimes), ele or shadow handgun (ranged attacks are very handy here), piercing/shadow defense, adjust perk for status from kats if desired.

Cards sometimes use the background of the Scarlet Fortress, even if the monster or mission isn't associated with the area.
