Hospitals can be found in each town, including inMagicant, with the exceptions beingSnowman andYoungtown. Hospitals in later towns will charge a higher treatment fee. There are three hospitals with unique attributes:

  • Magicant's hospital can heal any character's status condition (including unconsciousness) for free.
  • The doctor inMerrysville's hospital will charge half the player's current amount ofmoney rounded down. Due to this, if the player is currently holding$1 or$0 he will heal for free. It is unclear if this is an oversight or intentional.
