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

Catacombs HD
18.01.2013 at 21:29:17
 
OK, this has been asked repeatedly in the past, but not lately so here goes: Now that we have HD is anyone interested in picking Catacombs up again? I have a small mansion that could be modified to fit (dual booting so I can still use the builder.) Not to jump ahead of anyone (Olle and aquaMat were next in line, if they're still interested) but it seems like people still want to play the "oldies." What do you think guys?

I'd be all for it, but I'm not sure of the logistics of getting it done. Freddy used to send an original Catacombs file for builders to add on to, then I think he took care of uploading the finished file.

I hope somebody chimes in here that knows a lot more about how to get it done for HD.

Yeah I read the Hd converting instructions, it sounds fairly easy since Catacombs doesn't have any custom graphics. But if the original file isn't available maybe I'll just give my small mansion an ending and call it done.

The rules Freddy introduced for Catacombs were 10 rooms with $15000.  I guess he has the original file.  One must have the original file and the mansion builder, which only works in 10.6.8 or older versions of Mac OS X.  Then after adding the rooms the file must be duplicated for backup and at last converted to the HD version.

A little off the exact topic, not for HD, but there IS a start to Catacombs for MM2, that Freddy made the first section of, and I have made a second section with some tweaking and input from Freddy....way back when we were all excited about the contest and all the folks were building and creating with the new effects and creatures and goblins and Such !!! Roll Eyes

Freddy called it the "Hanging Gardens of Babylon" and maybe someone could check in with him also on this potential jump off point for a new catacombs for MM2 ???  Cheesy

Just a thought...

thanks !

SandyBean you've been holding out on us!  Smiley  Wink

Seriously though, I'd be into doing that too. If Freddy can't or doesn't want to continue the series he started maybe we could use your MM2 mansion as the first section? Let's see if we hear from him.

I have the first part of HGoB and it is very promising. Haven't seen Sandybeen's input.

But we' need 10.6.8 or earlier to keep on building.

Hi Brell et al,

I can try and send you the HGoB, part 1 (Freddy) and part 2 (me), but honestly have totally forgotten how to do this?  Zip file, email, all those things Freddy used to help me with as I am pretty computer 'illiterate' ~  Huh

If you could email, PM or let me know the steps to sending it, I'll gladly pass it along  Smiley  but please also would need a beta tester for my section (part 2) as I was just learning the new tricks, sprites, platforms and options on the new MM2 builder when I made it.

Thanks,

SandyBean  Smiley
