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.

The Mansion Family PART 2 -how shall I release it?
31.12.2007 at 18:08:51

Dear friends,

you might remember that I told you (prior to the release of TMF 3 - A Wondrous Place) that Part 2 of The Mansion Family (a.k.a. "Northern Lights") is currently put on hold. I had abandoned its design in Spring 2007 because I wasn't entirely satisfied with the snow landscapes (and also got a little tired of it).

Last night I replayed the part of it that's ready and thought it would be nice if it did get released - one way or the other.

So I need your help!! How shall I release it?
Should I....

1. Dust it off and polish it a little and release the only half-finished mansion "as is" in Free Up- and Downloading ? ...or....

2. Wait until inspiration strikes me again one sunny day and finish it proper and do an "official release" ?

What do you think ?? Undecided

Why is a carrot more orange than an orange ?

Patience is not easy for me, but I think it would be worth it.

I guess at the moment I tend to think it'll be better and wait and do a proper release.... if only for the sake of having the whole TMF series released correctly / officially. Other opinions? Anyone?

(just my honest opinion!) SandyBean

I feel we're all having a similar opinion about this... so I will wait 'til I'm in the mood (and have the time) to finish TMF 2, even if it means you'll probably not be able to play it before March or something, and then release it officially. Thx again.
