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.

Mac OS X Game Help
15.12.2014 at 03:16:35
 
Don't know if anyone remembers, but the apple website used to have a special downloads website which had downloads for various pieces of software, including many games. I loved this site to pieces and found many good games there (including Midnight Mansion).

However, unfortunately it doesn't exist anymore (or at least it is well hidden). There were two games which I am trying to look for again but completely forgotten the name of them.

One of them had a very awesome techno soundtrack and you would have to spin the entire maze stage to get the ball to the finish, but if you touched a wall, you would die. I used to play the free trial all the time on my mom's old iMac running an early version of OS X... but we sold it a couple years ago Sad

The other game I can't remember that well, but you played as a red bullish person and you had to transverse this flat 3D world sort of thing...

Does anyone remember these at all? If so, what are they called x3

Hi Leon- check out oldapps.com or macintoshgarden.org. The maze thing sounds familiar but I don't know the name.

Found the Maze one, it was on my mom's current iMac, it's called Spin Crisis Cheesy

Still can't find the other one, I found something similar called Marble Blast, but it wasn't as arcadey
