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

This is unbelievable !!

How can a city put away things which are so characteristic for its look....they were almost like "promotional tools" for England, IMO.

In Germany, shortly after the once state-owned Telekom (used to belong to the Post) became a private enterprise, they changed their look (their "corporate identity") to a screaming pink..... so all the old dark-yellow phone boxes disappeared (almost completely), and the new ones were not only pink....but they weren't boxes any longer (!)..... just lampposts with a phone and a big, pink sign.

Say it's raining and you need to phone....your problem if you get soaking wet.

However, those yellow phone boxes were not as "typical" (and also not as beautiful) as those red british ones.....

But why have the buses gone?  I can't believe it......

Sorry Matari you be wrong. Tongue

Two bus routes running through central London (the 9 and the 15) run the heritage/old double-deckers as those bus routes go past many of the tourist points. And double-decker buses in general as everywhere... most  London buses are double-deckers.

As to phone boxes, there are less of the old style, but they are still around (in London at least). Please see below for a recent photo of me with one:

Glad to hear not all the double deckers and phone boxes have gone !

We are here in Canada in Winter Wonder Land!  The first time in over 40 years where all across Canada has had a white Christmas.

I can tell you we have had enough here in Deroche, BC, we have been shovelling and working with the white stuff to excess !  The doves and chickens will not come out of their coops and aviaries, and the dogs come in covered in snowballs.  We have had a few of our family events and get togethers cancelled because of snow driving conditions, and have had to torture poor neighbors to our roast beef dinners in place of them !

Enough of the white stuff, I am ready for the regular lower mainland 'liquid sunshine', ie; rain !!!   Cool

Take care all, and wishing everyone a wonderful New Year !

Relax, don't get your knickers in a knot, I am only teasing. hee, hee, hee.

No, it's just an ordinary, but more rational, calendar system, with 30-days months and 10-days week (meaning less week-end time in a year  Shocked ).

They also tried to introduce a 10-hours-day, each hour being 100 minutes (and these 'hours' and 'minutes' not lasting the same time as the ones we know - let the mathematically inclined compute the conversion rate), but that was so much really, really impractical that it was abandoned in a few years' time only.

So, today it is Septidi 17 Nivose 217.
