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

The Mansion Family: Mind Mines
27.02.2007 at 19:33:18
 
Dear friemds,

I want to inform you that I finished the first installment of
THE MANSION FAMILY
, subtitled
Mind Mines
.
I did that while taking a break during the testing of the Discotheque, and as it is a good deal smaller than the Discotheque, I've agreed with Freddy to release it first.
He is currently preparing it for release, but please keep in mind that he has 5 other finished mansions to prepare also, so please be patient.

But, to water your appetite, here's the story and a screenshot.

The Mansion Family: Mind Mines Story:
Jack is leaving  his modest house in the city to find luck in the hills.
He has heard about a charismatic guy who invites people to come live with him and his "family" in an underground labyrinth in the hills: the Mind Mines.

But Jack has also heard some "less friendly" stories about the man and the place:
some people in the city claim the place is long deserted, the family gone. A few voices even hint at darker things.....of creatures involved, of black magic and the family being not so nice at all...


Mind Mines is about 55 rooms or so, and does feature only very few real innovations, like Jack has to read a magic spell, and will then be able to walk several feet above the ground....but I like it very much and hope you will too.

Below you see a screenshot of part of the city.

I'm guessing that it's a totally transparent custom block. I never tried that myself, but it seems like it would be easy enough. Just make the whole PICT resource cyan.

Thanks for the compliments, Sam.
I'm gald you like it.

As for the magic spell:

What Psychotronic said is NOT the solution, although it maybe could have been made that way.
But: I guarantuee you: In The Mind Mines there is NOT one bit of custom graphics involved !!

That should be enough for a hint right now....let's see if you find out !
