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.

Sky Palace — my first Mansion, coming soon...

Hey all,

A couple of days ago, I finally bought Midnight Mansion, and I have begun working on my first Mansion. It's quite a hard one. The mansion involves a lot of puzzle-solving, enemy avoiding, and even some glitch abusing.

So far, I've been mostly happy with the rooms I've created. It's quite difficult to create challenges that you don't usually see in Mansions. There's only a couple of this type of thing. I've done my best to keep none of the Mansion boring, so you will see a lot of lovely detail as well as the difficulty in each room. Smiley

Here is a sneek peek:

Oh... one picture isn't enough! Grin

Enjoy!

Love the vibrant colour theme!  You must be a decorator.

Looking forward to playing.  It's been quite some time since a new CM has come available.

Thanks! Smiley
I've been aiming to give my mansion the same type of style that the Mansions that come with the game have. I don't really like making my own style of mansion - like, sometimes people use a tile that's meant to be used for Layer 0 and instead use it for Layer 4. For example, you might use one of the background bricks for Layer 4.

I'll post another picture of my progress as more is done. I've done about 12 rooms, so far.
