SPOILERS FOR GONE GIRL

I love mysteries! Especially in D&D and TTRPGs. I love going around collecting clues, and trying to piece things together. Running mystery adventures can sometimes be difficult, but I find that laying out clues in a big clue map really helps. I can see how many clues there are, and all the possible paths my players could take. I've watched a lot of videos and read a lot of articles on running mysteries, but I couldn't find anyone that mentioned making a clue map. So I decided to make a step by step formula for how to make a mystery adventure, which includes making a clue map. So hopefully anyone can follow these steps and end up with a fun adventure to run for their group!
