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.

Great to hear iRock!  Glad you figured it out.  Yes, there are a few challenging spots in AYS, but we all have smart and athletic Jacks that catch on quick to new tricks !!

Thanks,

Sandy, I've been enjoying playing AYS since I downloaded it (couple/three weeks ago - I am also trying to beta-test HD...), and find it definitely as this topic's title terms it(!). Smiley

I've found for those few who are further behind than myself on AYS, that when you get to room 15294, it helps if you have two shields already. That way, you can eliminate the floating heads before you come back to this room from the one above. Although I found it is possible (if Jack be nimble...) for Jack to jump over a floating head to get the green key in room 15294. Wink

Great mansion, Sandy!

Hi Jim R  aka  'CapeJim' !!!

Thanks so much for the  positive feedback, I was beginning to feel like AYS was a flop ! Smiley

Good idea for 15294 about saving shields, and another tip for those interested in being a bit devious....

Sneaky Hint Alert
If you enter 15294 from the left bottom, you can trick one or even maybe two of those nasty floating Ghoulies to self Ignite !!!


Still working on an easy version with a couple of neat additions, and some real 'ching ching' treasures !!!  Our big Dog who had the knee surgery is healing well, but the problem is he needs to be held back from doing too much!  Kinda like a toddler who just learned how to crawl, walk and run all at once Smiley


Thanks guys and take care,
SandyBean  Smiley

Hey, Sandy - AWS is (for me) just the right level of challenge; I'm now working my way through the upside down garden area (got to the - forgot to write it down - room with the multicolor key), and made it onto the bottom moving platform in that room, but Jack got killed off after that in one of the next rooms the platform goes to. So, back to it tonight - really enjoying it, Sandy. You made excellent use of MM2's capability for platforms to move between rooms, also. Cool

Hi Jim !

Very Glad to hear that you are enjoying it ! Smiley

It was a lot of fun building it, and a huge learning curve to figure out some of the new features of MM2 !   There are so many ways to use these creative ideas, so I'm sure there will be lots of folks discovering innovative and interesting spins on them !   Cheesy

Let us know how Jack and you fare through the remaining areas  Wink

Thanks,

SandyBean  Smiley

Sandy, this is a fine mansion. It's the first one I've really felt challenged beyond my abilities in a long time. eh, Am not saying I'm that great; saying this is a sneaky tricky mansion that has none of the reek of "gotcha" energy.

I miss it since upgrading to OS Lion; I hope it converts to the HD game when MM2 HD happens.

Thank you so much; this is a keeper.

Hi Mick,

Thanks so much for the wonderful Compliment...it's great to hear AYS is challenging and I sure did have fun building it, plus my beta testers were fantastic at letting me know just how 'far' I could take my 'sneaky work' !!! Cool

There will be an 'easy' version coming soon with a couple of twists and surprises, so I hope MM2 will work on OS lion for you soon so you can continue playing the new MM2 mansions that get created...I'm still in the 'dark ages' here, using a 10.4 Tiger  Grin

Thanks and take care,

SandyBean  Smiley

Hi Aw  Smiley

Here's a hint (Spoiler Alert)......

It's a bit of a tricky Jump for Jack, he has
to be at the top of the vine, jump up, AND out to the Right at the same time to get above the brick,
plus he has to be really, really careful of the red vulture !

Hope that helps, glad you are enjoying it, let us know how Your Jack makes out  Cool

Thanks,
SandyBean  Smiley
