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.

Hi everyone,

I'm new on this board and I've only been playing MM for a short time but I've designed a mansion. It's called Starter Home - that's because it's an easy small mansion designed for beginners like me.

Any volunteers for beta-testing?

hi mapman and welcome to MM forums Smiley

I just played your Starter Home. A very nice little mansion in genuine MM-style (it has the atmosphere of some of the included mansions)

cudo's  Really enjoyed the mansion.  Keep them coming.  It was quite refreshing not finding myself frustrated in the play.   Roll Eyes

Thank you. I'm pleased people have played it and enjoyed it. I've started a second mansion, but it might be some time before it's ready - I've only done one room so far!

Hi mapman!
I thought that starter home was really cool for a first mansion. Like olle said, it felt a little like the included mansions, it had a good design and was fun to play! Looking forward to more mansions from you!

Well,  I hate to have to say it, but "Starter Mansion" was ............. over Waaaay  Too Soon !!!  My Jack really enjoyed the old style, with so many details and attention paid to the rooms, little cracks here and there for a hint, and places to explore. 

Excellent work mapman, and I am so hoping (and Jack too! ) that you will make another mansion soon, but please, make it Bigger !!!  Bigger is always better. 

Fantastic stuff, reminds me of the old days, when I just started MM, and all the fun stuff to explore.

Thanks so very much for building it, it was most excellent for your first, and now we crave more !!!  Cool

Take care,

SandyBean Smiley
