All Mini Medals Locations in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake

As a seasoned adventurer with countless hours spent navigating dungeons and battling monsters, I can confidently say that these Mini Medals have been hidden by the most cunning of treasure hoarders! From the depths of Zoma’s Citadel to the heights of Cloudsgate Citadel, these trinkets have tested even the most skilled among us.

The remade version of Dragon Quest III, titled “HD-2D,” retains its original essence quite accurately, while incorporating some enhancements intended for today’s gamers to enjoy more smoothly.

One characteristic retained in this JRPG is the Mini Medals, which are collectible items that offer fresh rewards as more of them are discovered.

In the remade version I’m playing, I’ve noticed that certain Mini Medals have been moved from their original spots, and there are now secret areas hidden all over the world map – making the hunt for these medals a whole new adventure!

Still, collecting these Mini Medals is worth it, as the rewards are always powerful equipment to aid in your hero’s journey.

Where to Trade Mini Medals

As a devoted player, here’s something I discovered: To cash in your Mini Medals for prizes, seek out Morgan Minimann, the Mini Medal enthusiast, hidden within the depths of Aliahan’s well.

Interacting with him keeps track of the number of Mini Medals you’ve distributed. Once you reach specific milestones, he’ll offer you a reward or inform you about upcoming rewards, including their details.

The rewards for delivering Mini Medals are:

Where To Find All Mini Medals

All Mini Medals Locations in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake

We’ll list the Mini Medals in chunks and in the order we obtained them so you can use this guide as a walkthrough.

Nevertheless, given their evasive nature, some might have slipped past us during the game. Luckily, with the convenience of swift travel offered by Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake‘s Zoom feature, revisiting previous locations is a breeze.

Having a Thief in your group significantly boosts the process of gathering Mini Medals, since their unique skills, “Nose for Treasure” and “Snoop,” reveal the quantity and exact locations of hidden treasures within the vicinity.

Note that you’ll need to wrap up the game, conquer a post-game labyrinth, vanquish its final boss, and unveil the hidden Temple of Trials, where the remaining two Mini Medals reside within the game.
