The Monkey Mansion (猿侯爵邸, Saru koushaku yashiki, Monkey Marquis Mansion) is an area accessible from Whipped Cream World.
Features
The Monkey Mansion is a large and well-furnished mansion inhabited by monkey servants and large rotating ape heads. It contains many doors blocked off by parts of the scenery instead of usual traffic cones, which may or may not indicate upcoming expansion of the area. The entrance hall contains two monkey servants, and you can access the rest of the mansion by climbing the stairs. Past the entrance hall are two paths – one on the northeast and one on the southwest sides of the main hall.
The upper right path leads to a short hall ending in a prominent doorway leading to an isolated section of the Flooded Facility, with four intermediary doorways. Both of the doors on the north face of the hall lead to empty rooms with a single monkey servant, while the door on the southwest face leads to a large dining room with several plates and chairs, one of which is a regal-looking couch.
The southwest path from the main hall has a single door, leading to a small room with another blocked-off door on the other side, and a pair of upward and downward stairwells.
Heading to the lower floor leads to a short hall with two doors on the north face, one door on the south face, and another stairwell leading to the basement. The basement contains a door blocked by construction signs; one of the three in this world. The northeast door is unopenable, the northwest door leads to a room containing a strange creature covered in speckles, and the south door leads to an endless hall with several doors, all of which lead back to the original door.
Meanwhile, going up the stairs leads to another hall with two doors on the north face and a door at the end. The two doors on the north lead to the same room, a room with a strange fish, and another door on the other end blocked by the water the fish is in. The door at the end of the hall leads to the main room of the Monkey Marquis.
Monkey Marquis' hall is arguably the strangest room in the area. It contains strange red and purple tiles with plants of the same color, several monkey servants and heads flitting about, and other strange sights such as toucans standing by the entrance. The music is regal and imposing. Monkey Marquis himself, relaxing in his throne, is the biggest monkey of the mansion, with his strange purple and lavender striped coat. There are two doors on the east and west sides. The east door leads to the balcony, which resembles a black void, and contains two large toucans. Interacting with the void makes the screen pan up to reveal a giant with eyes going down its body, accompanied by a red sky and black clouds. The western door is blocked by two NPCs and is currently inaccessible.
Urotsuki's Dream Apartments Parallels
This world's layout resembles that of the Urotsuki's Dream Apartments. The entrance hall parallels the main hallway of the apartments, with the same northeast and southwest halls of the original area. The door placement is similar between the worlds. Likewise, Monkey Marquis himself could be seen as a parallel of Urotsuki, with the patterns on his coat and the placement of his room. The significance of this resemblance is unknown.
Other parallel rooms are described here:
- The dining table room parallels the Trophy Room.
- The strange door at the end of the northeast hall parallels the door to the Dressing Room. This door, indeed, leads to a section of the Flooded Facility which contains a waterlogged dresser and several shirts, matching the parallels.
- The lone door on the southwest hall with another blocked-off door parallels Seishonen's room.
- The endless hall with the doors that all lead to its entrance parallels the Simple Street.
- The Space Creature's room parallels the room with the long-haired girl and the razor blades.
- The blocked doorway in the basement parallels the shortcut to the Forest Pier.
- The room on the upper floor with the fish and the door on the opposite side parallels the room in the original apartments which contained several boxes and the key door to the Developer Room. One of the blocked doors in the Monkey Marquis's room will likely lead to the other side of that canal and allow you to enter that door, as a parallel of how one enters the Developer Room.

The Dining table. I think the chairs are like the trophies.
I wonder if the Marquis dresses back there.
Okay, this guy has nothing to do with the razor blade room, sorry.
I wonder if I can find the mansion's architect on the other side of that door.
This guy must have some weird dreams.
The balcony, found east of his room. It seems equally as useless as Urotsuki's own balcony.
Spooky.
