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.

Still working...

Hi everybody!

Just in case you were wondering that there isn't any news about my two new mansions: I am still working hard. Unfortunately, "working hard" goes for both, Midnight Mansion AND my studies, which are kind of sucking up all my time right now.

The progress so far: "Bubbles" is taking a break. I am not working on this one for the time being. "Jacques' Revenge" is making good progress. I am not gonna lie to you, though: You can count yourself lucky if "Jacques' Revenge" goes into beta-testing before Easter. Sorry! Good news for those who like big mansions: "JR" is gonna be HUGE (and - again - easier than Palais Pompomrouge)!

Here's another screenshot from "Jacques' Revenge". The layout of the game is fairly easy: Jacques is walking on ground level from left to right (ground level being where the trees are). There is an overground and an underground section, both of which Jacques can access. Sometimes the access is fairly obvious, other times it's secret. You'll see.
