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.

Wow !  Happy Birthday Jack Malone, and thank you Vern and all you MM'ers who have kept this game and forum going and thriving....the best ever game I've found !  Smiley

Checking back seems I joined the forums in July, 2007, but I know I was long hooked on the game before that ! I was downloading and playing the custom mansions for a while before I worked up the nerve to join the forum, and even longer before I tried my hand at building... should have done it much sooner, what a great online community ~

It's simply amazing and unheard of to see a game that speaks to so many age groups and diverse people ....Jack Malone and his Midnight Mansion is truly a Masterpiece.

So Hat's Off and Congrats !   and Many Thanks,
SandyBean  Smiley
PS: now Jack and I are off to play a wee little new game I heard was made !    Smiley

If you have the money, you could get a VM software and Snow Leopard Server

Here's one I used a trial of which worked really well (though I did have to change a couple settings for certain things to work, though that is pretty simple) http://store.vmware.com/store/vmwde/en_GB/DisplayProductDetailsPage/ThemeID.2921...

Note that you HAVE to use Snow Leopard SERVER and not CLIENT (or whatever the regular version is called). Try calling up Apple to see if you can purchase a copy, if not, there are several being sold on places like eBay

Yes, this is possible with the Mac OS X server software, but not the regular OSes.
