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

Jack vs the Lion

Mac OS 10.7 is coming soon. It will not run PPC applications, such as Midnight Mansion or Midnight Mansion 2.

Cry

What's going to happen?



Apologies if this question has been addressed elsewhere; a quick search didn't give me anything, but I may not have used the right keywords in the search.

Thanks.

That's something Vern will have to answer, mick. That's a good question.

You don't have to update your system just because a newer MacOs is being released!

I'm sure Vern will release a version quite compatible with 10.7, don't worry about it, Mick. Wink

I'm still on Leopard (10.5). My philosophy is, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Cool

The philosophy of "not broke/don't fix" is a good one, and I agree that people aren't usually required to upgrade their OS just because it's available.

There are those of us, however, that are required to do so.

If the game(s) remain PPC coded, MM and MM2 will end up on a peripheral drive that I have to boot into if I want to play. That will make playing much less likely to happen.

I'd hate to see these fine games (and they really really are fine) turn into legacy apps.

I'm sure that Vern is working on a new version that is not PPC; I also know that it's not a simple thing to do.

Pretty-good rumours have Mac OS 10.7 coming out in a few months or less.  I hope that's enough time.

Hopefully Vern will see this and respond. I'm sure he's aware and working on it.  Cool

I have it on good authority that a fully Intel-compatible version of Midnight Mansion will be out before MacOS Lion. Smiley

In fact, it will have quite a few surprises in addition to running fully native on Intel Macs.

Mick, you can have one computer for MM and one that you can upgrade! Smiley

Yikes, I didn't even realize it was PPC-only until I tried to play tonight - first time I got bit by the Lion.  Even though I was fully aware it would happen eventually - and probably with a game.
