Fable III[]
Health Potions have been greatly simplified in Fable III. During combat, when the hero eventually becomes injured, there will be a Health potion icon that appears on the HUD which is usable by pressing "Right" on the D-Pad. With the removal of the health bar, there is no longer a value associated with the healing effect of these potions.
There is only one type of Health Potion in the game, which is usually available from shops, chests, dig spots and gifts from villagers. The base value for these potions is 226 gold.
