The Tiled Room - a Miami Middletown Mystery

"You awake in a small, white, tiled room.  There is nothing in the room but a fluorescent light overhead, a vent in the ceiling, a heavy metal door, and a laptop on the floor."

This digital escape room is designed to teach you a little about how Wikipedia works and a little bit about evaluating information.  Can you solve the mystery and escape the room?  Enter The Tiled Room and find out! We hope you enjoy it!
