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.

Twisted ladder question
21.09.2007 at 19:09:35
 
Jack saw on the map that it was a black hole he had to "excavate". After many tries and frustration he finally found his way to room 30501. it seems the twisted ladder is the only way out and he can't figure out how to climb it. He has looked at the map but can't find an alternative route! HELP! Hint, please!

I am not at home so I can't look at the map right now.  Rose, you are in the "hidden" cabins section, right?  The twisted ladder is a red herring.  There is another way out of this section.  Have you gone as deep down in the ship as possible in this section?

Dear brell,

as you might have guessed from my earlier remarks.... I have the same problem as rose. Even though I found out pretty fast (thru 3 painful deaths) that the "twisted ladder" was a red herring, I still couldn't find another way out. And believe me: I have searched the central section (with the long ladder) plus all rooms around it, over and over again.

At the moment I have paused playing / trying (out of sheer frustration).

Judged by your answer to Rose it must be somewhere deep down... but I'm pretty sure I was as deep as it's possible.

Or not ???!!!      Roll Eyes   Shocked   Undecided   Cry

Deepest point in THAT section is the room with oh-my-god-all-those-coloured-doors. Wink And in that not so difficult bottom-area is IMO a clear hint about where to continue. But the path AFTER the hint is stunning! Cool

I am more persistent and have died 3x17 times at least, but I have also looked for other ways out.
Yep I am in the hidden section and have been to the bottom but not after reaching the twisted ladder

It would have been fun if Jack had been able to climb it though Smiley

We (I and JAck) are off to the bottom! See you!

P.S. I never got any notification from this thread eventhough I was the one to start it. I have been waiting and waiting!!! Finally I went to the board and saw that there were replies!!! Where do we report bugs like this???
