They don't make 'em like they used to. Thankfully, that isn't entirely true. Last Monday, I registered a terrific shareware game. The game was Midnight Mansion by ActionSoft. After reading the stellar reviews and briefly playing the demo, I knew that I had to buy it. The game is a good old-fashioned 2D platform game in the style of Montezuma's Revenge or Dark Castle. I remember having a great time playing Montezuma's Revenge on my IBM PC many years ago. Mignight Mansion is every bit as good as I remember that game to be. The graphics may look dated to some. However, I feel that the artwork is very effective in its cartoonish style. The level design has been top notch so far. I've completed three mansions on the easy level so far and have a lot more to explore.
