The Scorched Wasteland (赤土, Akatsuchi, Red Earth) is an area accessible from Floating Stones World through the cactus-shaped stone.
Features
When entering, the Scorched Wasteland is a red-tinted area containing cacti singed black. Directly to the west is a fenced- off area, which takes you to the Ash Shettlement when entered. North from the entrance is an NPC in a yellow cloak near a wire-fenced corridor. By chainsawing the cloaked figure and entering the corridor, you will be taken to a path with a vending machine which sells broken, empty cans for 10夢 and several broken wooden objects on the ground; continuing west from here will take you to The Ark.
There is an alternate entrance here from Atlantis; if the screen is tinted red, a uniquely shaped piece of coral in the Trench area will serve as a one-way portal to this area.
The Ash Settlement
This is an area similar to the Barracks Settlement from Yume Nikki - dilapidated housing surrounded by wire fences with silhouetted figure walking around. Two of the shacks will have open doors; one has nothing in it, but the other has a plant in it that when interacted with will (sometimes) take you to an gray ash field when you go outside again.
This new area is completely gray, and the shadowy NPCs that were in the settlement area are now more visible. To the east is another vending machine which sells empty cans and a bench on which Urotsuki will refuse to sit. Travelling south from the vending machine will lead you to a doorway, which will take you to a platform with a penguin on it. This platform is part of a larger area, the other half of which you can reach after traveling on the Ark.
The Ark
The Ark is a big black boat behind more wire fences, with a small, empty bedroom inside. If you go to sleep, the screen will randomly fade to black and Urotsuki will wake up in the middle of a terrible storm, and you won't be able to leave the ark when you go outside. Sleeping in the bed once again, the world will now be colourful when you wake up and you can safely exit the ark onto a red wooden dock.
Travelling east will lead to a sectioned off platform viewing the new blue and gold background. Using the Rainbow effect here will make a rainbow appear. Sometimes, a whale will be flying past.
Going west, you will see another whale, and will ultimately end up at the colorized version of the penguin area. In addition to penguins, you can also find a strange pair of eyes in the ground and a long tentacle reaching from underneath the platform.

Trivia
- The tileset for this world includes a couple of extra cacti shaped like hands. These are never used anywhere in this world.
- This world is the most complex compound map in the game, consisting of a total of ten maps. In contrast, only five were used to make the Forest Pier.
Penguin Party!!
Flying whale.
