A brief history of the game
At first there was Midnight Mansion, now often called MM1. This game package was for Mac only and contained 8 mansions, each on easy, normal and hard level. Above that there was a builder included, so that customers could design mansions themselves.
Then there was Midnight Mansion HD, now abbreviated as MM1 HD for both Mac and Windows. It contained the 3x8 mansions from MM1 plus 3x a bonus mansion: Tomb of Princes. All in high definition!
Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills, includes 28 mansions with a lot of new features. The 8 built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. Yes indeed, the MM2 package also has an included builder to create mansions!

Custom mansions

In the past decades several customers started experimenting with the builders. Creating rooms. Talking about it on the Midnight Mansion Forums. Sending their own designed mansions to other board members to test them. And finally sending them to the administrators of MMF.
Result? Nearly 200 extra mansions are downloadable from these boards and some of them have over 100 rooms.
If you like to download custom mansions, go to the General Custom Mansions Area (Mac and Windows) where you find the lists with all the download spots.

STORY

As we all know, Jack is often travelling. While he was walking through a large forest, he suddenly came across a lot of houses, grouped together somewhere deep in the woods. After some walking around he realized it was a former holiday village. He liked to get into those houses, but they all seemed to be closed. At last, he found a red bungalow that he could climb on. And by the chimney he could enter that house. Once he was inside, there were ... closed doors ... and keys. At the end he had one key left, so he could enter one of the other houses.

---> I am trying to make an easy-to-normal mansion, which is cut in clearly seperated pieces to help starting players. First solve house 1, then house 2 etc.

Looking forward to it, Freddy. Sounds interesting.

Although I suspect we'll see a lot of your typical multicolored doors again....   Grin

No screenshots! Cool

But I am thinking of ... releasing the first 2 finished houses. And making additions now and then. With this concept, why should I wait till autumn?
