Recovery Blocks (also called Heart Blocks and HP Blocks) are a type of block featured in several Mario role-playing games, specifically within the Paper Mario series and the Mario & Luigi series. Recovery Blocks first appear in Paper Mario.

In the Paper Mario series[]

Paper Mario[]

Recovery Blocks are found throughout the Mushroom Kingdom. Whenever Mario hits one, all of his HP and FP are restored. Recovery Blocks are usually found near Save Blocks before boss fights.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[]

Recovery Blocks return in this game with the same purpose. However, now, Mario must pay a certain amount of coins in order to use one. The amount of coins to use a Recovery Block depends on the area. Earlier areas in the game such as Hooktail Castle and The Great Tree cost around 10 coins to use while much later ones such the Palace of Shadow can cost up to 20 coins.

Super Paper Mario[]

Recovery Blocks return as semi-common objects in this game where, as with the previous games, are found usually near Save Blocks.
