There really isn't too much to write about; if we weren't to include all the sensical and nonsensical comments all of the NPCs have to say, that is.
(Some expansion. Will hopefully expand on the Overview section soon.)

{{sectstub}}
Merrysville consists of twenty multi-storied buildings, five of which can be accessed; being the town's burger shop, department store, hospital, hotel, and [[Twinkle Elementary School|elementary school]]. When first visiting the town, several inhabitants are concerned about the rocks lying on the railroad track, making the [[train]] unable to pass.<ref>"There was a rock- slide near Union Station. The train can't get through until it has been removed." - NPC</ref><ref>"Big rocks block the railroad. The train cannot pass." - NPC</ref><ref>"How can we get the big rocks off the railroad tracks? I'll bet the Mayor leaves them there 'til election time." - NPC</ref> Others inform Ninten about there being a [[Duncan's Factory|factory]] to the north of the town, which have started to produce rockets,<ref>"I got this from Duncan's factory in the north." - NPC</ref><ref>"I've heard that in Duncan's Factory up north, they've started building huge rockets." - NPC</ref> one individual even suggesting that they might help him to get rid of the rocks on the tracks.<ref>"I think... I think... The rockslide on the railroad tracks... Could be blown up with a Duncan Factory Rocket." - NPC</ref> Some people comment on how hostile beings roam the outskirts of the town.<ref>"I've heard many scary monsters lurk outside town. I'm so afraid that they'll take my money away. - NPC</ref><ref>"An awful creature beat me up. If you're going to the station, watch out!" - NPC</ref>
 
A man located between the [[department store]] and [[hotel]] asks Ninten to answer his questionnaire, which consists of two questions. One is about whether or not he thinks the train tickets are too expensive, and one is about whether or not he has used the [[List of battle items in Mother#Bullhorn|Bullhorn]] yet; whatever Ninten replies, the man will thank him for his cooperation and give him the [[List of miscellaneous items in Mother#Telephone Card|Telephone Card]] in return.

[[Ninten]] first arrives at Merrysville after exiting [[Magicant]] via the [[Magicant Underground]], where he is transported to a cave in the southern outskirts of the town. After entering the town, he goes to the town's [[Twinkle Elementary School|elementary school]], where he meets a boy hiding in a trash can on the school's roof, who introduces himself as [[Lloyd]], also mentioning his liking for the [[List of battle items in Mother#Bottle Rocket|Bottle Rocket]]s that are produced at [[Sweet's Little Factory]]. After Ninten manages to find one in the factory and gives it to Lloyd, Lloyd takes him to the school's lab room, where he, after a failed experiment involving his newly obtained rocket, joins Ninten on his journey.

The party discovers that the path leading to the [[Union Station|town's train station]] is blocked by a set of rocks. They head toward [[Duncan's Factory]], where they find a [[List of key items in Mother#Pass|Pass]] on the way, which supposedly grants access to the factory. The [[Stray Dog|dog]] guarding the factory's entrance notcies that the pass is expired, and battles them instead of letting them in. After defeating the dog, the party enters the factory, and after having managed to navigate through the maze-like building, they do, thanks to Lloyd, activate a rocket, which they send towards the rocks. After successfully clearing the path to the train station, the two of them exit the factory, and continue with their journey via the newly accessible train station.

Unlike the other [[hospital]]s in {{vg|Mother}}, treatment of status ailments by the [[Old Sawbones Benny|doctor in Merrysville]] is always half of the amount of money [[Ninten]] is carrying. Revival of unconscious party members is consistently $190, however.
