Wow, I'm amazed at the design and storyline of Parts I and II, especially how it ends. What a fantastic job!

Thanks, Semi-Native!

I must say it was quite a lot of work, so I am very happy if players like the mansion(s).

I can't even imagine how much work went into it. Really looking forward to the next installment!

Hi Semi-Native, et. al.

These are amazing mansions and (Leo, your ears will be 'burning') Leo also is a supportive, gracious designer. He takes designing to the next level plus adds the story line element. Testing a 400+ room mansion was a challenge - I had 26 pages of notes and I know Missy had at least that many - it should have been daunting, but Leo made it easy and so much fun. I think the beginning of JR2 is beyond brilliant MM-wise.

Hi Leo,

Thanks for the great mansions, my Jack was a super hero in part II and was able to get through the whole thing, but only after he figured out he had to go up to the surface each time a ladder was presented. He felt like a real winner with each room that had wondrous treasures !

Can't wait for the final part, my Jack is feeling a bit of Sympathy for the big, fat, presently in jail pompous ass !

thanks again, and keep up the great work !

Hi SandyBean!

Alright! 90% of secrets! That's pretty good! I'm glad you had fun playing the mansions and reading the story.

"...my Jack is feeling a bit of Sympathy for the big, fat, presently in jail pompous ass !" LOL! That's the way I intended it! One-dimensional characters are a bit boring, so I thought why not turn the fat and nasty Cardinal into a person Jacques will eventually get along with and readers might feel a little sympathy for.
