Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills,  includes 28 mansions. The 8 Built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. We don't have that many other custom MM2 mansions yet. Design your own custom mansion! Info below.  You can find out more about the game here.

The original Midnight Mansion game contains over 150 mansions. The 8 included mansions which have 3 difficulty levels each, and about 115 approved custom mansions which you can download here and also several freely uploaded mansions. To know the difference between these three types of mansions, click here.

Are you a creative person and thinking of designing a mansion yourself? Or want to know about how to upload it? Click here and we'll show you! You'll find guidelines for betatesters here.

News:
Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills version 1.0.2b has been released. This fixes a bug in Jasperlone Mountains Hard. Simply re-download the game, bring over your custom mansions folder from the old version and play on. All your saves and high scores will not be changed.

Midnight Mansion HD (MM1) is now available at the Mac App Store and at the Actionsoft website. A Windows version is now available.

Here is a list of downloadable MM1 HD ready custom mansions, which also work in the Windows version of the game.

The MM2 custom mansion Hanging Gardens of Babylon by Freddy/SandyBean/Josephine/brell was updated on 19. Nov 2023 to add a fourth section. Available here

Here is version 1.0 of Jack and Jack.  It is not finished yet as there are possible stucks and deaths that can lead to loosing one of the twins - but sometimes it is possible to bring him back to life!

Edit:  I've replaced version 1.0 with 2.0!  Added 3 rooms to demonstrate what happens if one of the twins climbs between rooms, and, well, you'll find out....

Version 2.0 upgraded to 2.1.  Added a sign to help players to avoid cheap deaths.

Added: This mansion is evolving fast.  Version 3.0 is now ready for download.  Added 3 more rooms to make one more demonstration involving ladders and made a minor change in the starting room to avoid cheap deaths when going to the exit room.

Upgraded to 3.1 due to a minor fix

@brell:

I experienced that many deaths for (at least) one of the twins, when going from one room to the next, that I never could get that last blue keys in the leftmost room.
Usually I ended up with the remaining Jack stuck in a gap (he could get out via that secret passage, but he couldn't get to the leftmost room anymore....

Am I too dumb, or is that the problem you mentioned (when you wrote 'not finalized....')?

Have you tried
jumping between rooms?
  Note that the second twin must be at certain positions to land on the correct places in the room to the left of the starting room.

After much thought and consulting with Aquamat (thanks for the testing) I have decided that IT will NOT go to the complete mansions list.  It is too erratic and if I change it to avoid some weird behaviour some of the two-Jacks-effects are ruined.  So, IT is just what it is, a demonstration of what is possible with 2 Jacks going between rooms.  It is very easy to play once you know how to avoid deaths which can lead to disaster.  I can provide hints or even a walkthrough via e-mail if requested.

For some reason, when Rose sent me a movie of her beating the end of Volcanis, my computer didn't know what kind of document it was and MM wouldn't let me open it up!  Cry Huh I tried making the default opening up thing to MM, changed the icon, and everything. Nothing worked!  Cry Cry

Why doesn't it work?? All you gotta do is go into prefs, make sure recording is on, once you beat the mansion, send the movie in a zip file here! If you can't find the movie, search for your user folder of MM. It in, Libary/App. Suport/Midnight Mansion/Usermovies/(your user)/there it is!

Here's a movie of me beating Echo keep! Boy I love that mansion! Don't laugh at my silly mistakes. Didn't suspend or open save the whole way through. (I think)
