Why should you? As far as I know, nobody ever found their way through the Ultimate Maze without a hint. That is why it is ... ultimate. 8-) The needed hint comes by PM !

Hi Freddy,
You are a godsend! 8-)
I have started the Ultimate maze now with your hint in mind and have renewed hope!!!
I know I must have missed a lot of the mansion, because I only used 18 saving pedestals, and already am at the Ultimate maze, so I have gone back to the beginning, attempting to find every secret and every cent. I am doing well, it's trying at times, needing to search everywhere, and I tell you, the Vault Room (my name) # 15721 was indeed a challenge, but I did it, with no leftover keys to dump.
I am going over the area between checkpoint #6 and #7 for the fifth time because I am missing one secret and $200 that I just cannot seem to locate.
It took a while for me to figure out how to get the $200. money bags in room #14922, but I finally got it with lots of persistance. I still don't understand what the lever does in room #15122 ?
Anyway, thank you so much for all the help so far, it is truly an amazing mansion, and one that I am thoroughly enjoying playing! [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

The Vaultroom 15721 is normal in comparison with the Oh my God all those doors room in my House of Wonders. Name of that room NOT chosen by me! :  But anyway the Vaultroom is a puzzle that needs some thinking work before being able to open all doors and catch all the prizes. Did I say yet, that I like my black backgrounds more and more?
If you are still missing $ 200 between checkpoints 6 and 7 the answer may be rather simple. Since you don't know what the lever is doing in room 15122. Maybe it is a good exercise to learn to listen to the sounds in the MM-game. Starting platforms, opening/closing grey doors, opening trapdoors, illuminating torches etc. all have different sounds. And in this particular room, pulling the lever helps to find a secret $ 200!
Room 14922 is a matter of jumping, not walking to the right. And keep in mind that there is even more in that room than the 2 visible $ 200 moneybags.

Hi Freddy et al,
Normally, I play the game with the sound off, since my dog Murphy gets really upset whenever he hears Jack die (I think he is very sympathetic!). It is much harder this way, but I love my dog very much, and do not want him to suffer along with Jack. :-[
I found out where I missed the $200, it was not it room15122, (I did the lower left vine jump up and over right, thereby getting the treasure without having to pull the lever, that is why I did not know what the lever was for). I found the missed $200 in the dark snake room # 15518, on the steps leading down to the left! Yahoo !!!
I finished the Ultimate Maze (except for most of the treasure chests on the floor; not sure how to get to those), and found I still could not get to the left side of the Magic Maze. I was so dissapointed! :-[ I do not know where to go from here, as I am now back in the precise jump room, and there seems to be no way new to explore. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks so much

Hello Murphy & co!
The precize-jump-area should lead you to the entrance of the Ultimate Maze.
And you need to be more ... precize  about how left you got into troubles in the Magic Maze. Any roomnumber(s)?

Hi Freddy,
After finishing the Ultimate Maze, I thought the room on the left with all the doors and the save pedestal would lead up to the left side of the Magic maze (rms 16137 - 39 that I could only see from above), but found it only led to the precise jump room, where my only choice is to backtrack or to go and re-enter the Ultimate maze. I do not know where to go from here. :question
Also, I cannot figure out how to get to the treasure chests at the bottom of the Ultimate Maze, I only reached one by an access road.
Thanks,
Sandybean
PS: Murphy sends his regards, and was wondering if you could make a mansion with dogs in it so he could help? :

Hi Freddy et al,
I have finally found a way to continue after the Ultimate Maze, with help from Freddy, Thanks again!!! [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]
Now, whenever I play a mansion, I have the sound ON, as it is much easier this way. My dog Murphy (who is a 13 month old GoldenDoodle) is better now, but he still raises his head and tilts it sideways whenever Jack dies, especially if he gets eaten by a tarantula (all that lip-smacking noise..... he probably figures it's 'Snack Time'.!!!) ;D
Well, Jack, Murphy and I are off for more adventure and mystery,
take care all,
Sandybean

Well, a new chapter in my life is complete ! (for now anyway). : 
I have finally finished MM&M with 95 % secrets, and 426,250 points, and more lives than Jack has ever had! [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]
Since starting to build a basic mansion myself, I now understand all the time, time and more time, and hard work that goes into these fantastic mansions, and am in awe of all you ingenious builders. I think back of some of the CM's I have played, and wonder, how did you guys figure all that out, and plan and execute it so well?
It's a mystery to me still, but I sure am glad you all can build like that, since I truly enjoy playing the masterpieces. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] [smiley=tekst-toppie.gif]
That's it for now, take care,
SandyBean [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif] and Murphy [smiley=happy.gif]

Thx for playing MMaM!
If you are interested, play Moon. Best to download at reply 10 from Free up- and downloading. That was supposed to be a part of the treasure area of MMaM, but Vern convinced me to remove that room, because with slowlier machines Jack wouldn't move any more. :'( In a matter of fact, MMaM was supposed to have $ 1.000.000. But ... Jack got stuck ... at $ 500.000.  Mmmm ... perhaps not enough mazes. :-? Aha! Not enough monsters!! 8-)
