Stay at an Inn

Staying at an inn will completely replenish your HP, FP, and SP. This will come at a cost, however, which will vary for different inns.

Use Recovery Blocks

Jumping on Recovery Blocks found around the map will fully recover your HP and FP at the cost of some coins.

Recovery Blocks are often found before boss battles, allowing you to recover before battle.

Collect Hearts by Defeating Enemies

Defeating enemies appearing on stage will sometimes drop Hearts.

Whether or not an enemy will drop a Heart is random, so it is recommended to repeat easy battles to recover HP.
