Shiren of Furai 6 Complete master guide of castle tower thief! Thorough explanation of safety techniques with a success rate of over 99% for beginners to advanced users
In Shiren the Wind 6: Toguro Island Exploration Record, the castle thief is one of the most appealing challenges for players. A castle tower refers to a special store structure, such as a luxury store, that appears in a specific dungeon in the game. You can get powerful weapons, shields, staffs, scrolls, and other items for free. If you succeed in this thief, you will be able to greatly strengthen your equipment without consuming any Gitan, making future dungeon attacks much easier. Especially in advanced play that utilizes money-eating equipment, earning money through thieves is essential.
However, thieves in castle towers are different from ordinary stores, and they come with the risk of the store owner's strong tracking ability and the appearance of a large number of thieves and guard dogs. When you become a thief, 4 thieves will definitely appear around the stairs, and up to 15 shopkeeper-type monsters will spawn on the entire floor, and you will be chased by the shopkeeper who moves at double speed. If you fail, you will be penalized by losing all items and not being able to rescue the guests. Therefore, in this guide, we will thoroughly explain the seven core techniques that will help even beginners succeed safely, including detailed steps, where to get the necessary items, precautions, and ways to avoid failure patterns. If you master these techniques, you can increase the success rate of castle tower thieves to over 99%. We will also introduce applications and combinations of each technique, so it can be applied to any floor arrangement.

Essential preparation and checklist for a successful thief
If you neglect the following preparations before challenging the castle tower thief, you will immediately fail. First, let's check the type of shopkeeper. The red shopkeeper is standard, the gray shopkeeper is a shop with an unbreakable wall, and the yellow shopkeeper has a shield to protect against magic and is immune to wand magic. In the case of the yellow shopkeeper, the iron plate is to weaken him by throwing peach buns.
Checklist (all items must be cleared)
- Shopkeeper confirmation: If the shopkeeper is yellow, prepare at least one peach bun (weak monster type). You can get it from the Momoman shop and the lower floors of regular dungeons.
- Presence of guard dog: When using the sea lion pot, check for the presence of a guard dog. The guard dog disables Steller.
- Eliminate the risk of forced movement: Eliminate warp monsters such as skeletons in advance. Check visibility with the light scroll.
- Basic items to bring
- Clod Staff (x2-3): Required for blocking passages and creating walls. Obtained from the lower level of the Golden Highway.
- Tunnel Staff (x1): Creates a straight route.
- Jumping Staff (x1): Moves at high speed.
- Large room scroll (x1): Turns the entire floor into a store.
- Yamabiko Incense (x1): Reflects warp.
- Makeshift cane (x1): For reflection.
- Steller's pot (x1): Steal safety.
- Resurrection grass/invincible grass (x2): Releases bondage.
- Trapper's Bracelet or Pot of Abyss: Alternate escape.
- Utilizing parallel saves: If you are unsure, save and practice in front of the store.
- Manage your hunger level: You can release your hunger if you are hungry.
Gather these in the village using synthetic pots or identification. After completing the preparations, when you arrive at the castle tower, first explore the entire floor and figure out the location of the stairs and the distance to the store.
1. Standard safety method of fixing the castle tower to the stairs when making a large room
This is the most stable technique and recommended for beginners. By using the scrolls in the large room, the entire floor will be treated as a store, and a castle tower (luxury store) will appear fixedly above the stairs. The store owner simply blocks the stairs, so they can be eliminated immediately.
Detailed procedure (number of turns specified)
- Turns 1-2: After checking the store, use the scroll in the large room. The entire floor will be converted into a store, and the castle tower will pop up above the stairs.
- Turn 3: Collect all items in the castle tower (earn money by collecting after selling). The shopkeeper immediately moves up the stairs.
- Turn 4: Eliminate the shopkeeper.
- Blow-off staff throw: Blows away 10 squares.
- Peach Bun Throw: 1 hit after turning into a weak monster.
- Place change staff: Exchange with the monster on the stairs (pre-fixed).
- Turn 5: Step down the stairs successfully.
Items needed
Scroll in the large room, blowout wand, peach bun, or place change wand + kanashibari wand.
Where to get it
The large room scroll is the middle layer of Coil Island, and the blowing staff is the underwater cave.
Points to note and how to avoid mistakes
- Yellow Shopkeeper: Cane is disabled, so peach bun is required. Be careful not to throw it away.
- Existing monsters on the stairs: Fixed in advance or with tie-downs.
- When the Shrine of Wishes coexists: It's super easy because the shopkeeper only blocks the stairs.
- Common mistake: If you don't get off the castle tower before it starts moving (within a few turns), you will return as the shop owner.
application
After blocking the shopkeeper with a clod cane, he throws stones. The success rate is 100% and the required turn is less than 5.
This method makes maximum use of the castle tower's specifications (fixed stairs) and forms the basis for other techniques. Master it with practice.
2. An iron-clad method to perfectly control enemy spawning by blockading mud pits
Isolate the store and stairs into a small area with clods of earth, and limit enemy spawns to the outside. Escape safely by processing only inside the stairwell.
Detailed steps
- Preparation turns 1 to 3: Create a small passage including a store and stairs (blocking 1 square in width) using a clod staff.
- Turn 4: Trigger all enemies to spawn (walk or throw) outside the small area.

- Turn 6-7: Dispose of only 4 thieves + random enemies in the small area (combined with Kanbini Staff).

Where to get it
Clod canes are all over the Golden Highway.
Points to note and how to avoid mistakes
- Wind-bearing monster: Be careful of destroying clods by blowing away. Eliminate in advance.

- Example of mistake: Foreign enemy invades due to incomplete blockade → Reuse of clod.

application
After guiding the store owner out of the small area, it will be sealed off. It's super safe with zero enemies spawning. The success rate is 98%, making it ideal for large floors.
This technique is the ultimate way to control enemies, and if used in conjunction with making a large room, you will be invincible.

It's high risk and high return, but it depends on your preparation.
4. Make a temporary warp escape with the reflection of the mountains

Detailed steps
- Turn 1: Use Yamabiko's incense (10 turns in reflective state).
- Turns 2-3: Collect items.
- Turn 4: Wave the makeshift staff at the shopkeeper → The reflection will cause a warp up the stairs and a bondage.
