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

Alternates to Death

Vern,

I know this is kind of late but I was just thinking that it would be nice if instead of being penalized just by death there could be a point decrementer. For instance you run into or over certain types of bricks or critters and instead of dying or taking a shield you take points. Just a thought.....

Take 1000 points the same as a life?  Huh What if when you loose 1000 points you also loose a life?  Shocked I kinda like being paralized for like 10 seconds instead of death or score taking. Score taking would mess up alot of people if they're playing the mansion again for money! They'd have to start again or load a save point!  Shocked If there is a vote, I disagree with Joe.  Sad

That's NOT what I said. Just take points. Yes if you're playing a mansion for points then it would affect your score but so does not being able to get to a bag of gold or whatever. You lose a life there and the points as well! What I'm saying is just take points.

Same thing. You can't move out of the way of some disaster so you die and lose points getting a new life. Again, dead and loss of points.

That doesn't happen now??????

Since this doesn't exist there's no reason to VOTE! Just throwing out an idea.

Ok... but I was suggesting if this went through that it should take a life and 1000 points on you point-trap.  Wink I don't think anything is going to happen.

BTW: Now I'm an expedition leader! Yay! 501th post!

What if certain creatures could trigger events in the game? Like if you accidentally get hit by a scorpion, the door to the next room closes permanently and keeps you from getting the treasure in there? It would be just like taking points away.

Triggered events would be awesome!!!! But how hard to program, that's really the question.
