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.

Secret Planet: A new mansion coming very soon
29.03.2013 at 10:29:09
 
Making a mansion called Secret Planet. Here's some info:
Secrets: Hopefully at least 300
Rooms: About 400
Difficulty: Easy. (I mean "children easy!")
Description: Jack has just heard that each of the 4 kings and queens are going to take over Malone Island!* Manny, one of the kings, has created a plan: an invention that has a lot of zapper beams to take over the island. Jack's friends, Paula and Legbert, are going to stop the kings and queens! There are 13 buttons to shut the machine down.
Save Pedestals: 58
*The place that Jack was after he found all the gold in Jasperlone Mountains

Screenshots will be coming soon.

By the way, this thing has something to do with the MM1 mansion "Catacombs". So, when you finish each section, as always, there will be a save pedestal and next to it contains the perfect score. All the sections (except for the training) has a total amount of 75,000. (Training score is 25,000) That basically means that when you finish section 1, your perfect score is 100,000. Section 2's perfect score is 175,000, section 3's 250,000, well...you get the idea. But the final score is 925,000. BUT, there might be another secret area in the exit room, consisting of 25,000, which means that if you find it, total will be 950,000. Become a millionaire (almost) in just an hour!

UPDATE: (Oh my goodness there hasn't been any recent activity on the forums so I posted this) Some of the secret rooms include yet what most people complain about, but these add
boring educational value to what would otherwise be an almost entirely fun-to-follow planet! Anyway, it includes mathematics (fractions, time, ratios, geometry) because most people except me have trouble with it, so when you enter, you get to explore AND learn at the same time, especially if you have kids. Have fun!!!!

There is definitely activity on the board, but i think a lot of people (like me) just drop by to see what's new without signing in or posting anything  Cool

What she said.

I'm still sad about the slow death of this sweet game, and am buoyed by the fine creative people who continue to make new mansions....   even if they are for MM2 and I have to boot into a Snow Leopard partition to play the game.

MM1 still gets a lot play.

My appreciation to you (all).
