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.

Catacombs Level 7 - Room 15510
05.04.2009 at 14:24:46
 
Hi everyone, I have been playing MM for a couple of years now and just love it - a big thanks to all those people who have submitted custom mansions - they're great.

Okie dokie - I am stuck on level 7 in room 15510 for the hundredth darn time.... grrrrrr.... and I know other people have also had problems with the secret puzzle behind the wall in this room - but they seem to sort it out and I can't - I end up in this room with only a few lives and just cannot work out what to do!. I use all my lives up very quickly and then have to go back to the very start of the level and start all over again.

I've started the moving block at the right, have gone up and down on it, jumped everywhere (and died), tried to pull levers, hoped I catch a vine or something - but nadda!!!!

Please, please help me get outta here so I can get on with it and enjoy all the new levels that keep getting added.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Yeah this room took me forever to get!  Tongue

Here's a hint, just copy and paste it at rot13.com to decode:

If that doesn't help, I'll post the solution. Good luck, this was a hard room!

OMG!!! UH DUH!!!! I cannot believe out of the 150 darn times I visited 'that' room and stood on 'that' moving platform - that I didn't do "THAT"!!!! I could've sworn I had tried absolutely everything - over and over and yet over again. Isn't hindsight (and a wonderfully coded message) a glorious thing....

Also, after I got to the end of this level I realised that I was actually playing level 8 and not 7, which explains why when I was reading posts on this room that some said level 7 and others said level 8. I think the confusion arises because when you open your saved game it says Catacombs 7 and it's not until you get to the end (finally) and you do that precious save that you realise/remember you have actually been playing level 8. I hope that helps other poor confused souls (like me) when they also get stymied by this wee gem of a puzzle!

Many ta's for replies, very much appreciated and I am happy to announce that I have moved on and am now nearly at the end of the next level (9).

One further note on this as Freddy has pointed out so many times:  The movements and actions Jack can take are in fact very few, so there are only six keys we need to try, sometimes with combinations of two (seldom three) keys and seldom press-and-hold.
