A limited-time event is sending *The Sims 4* players into a frenzy as they search for items scattered throughout their world. One particular task, however, is causing quite a bit of confusion. Let's delve into how to find the Special Time Capsule during *The Sims 4* Blast from the Past event before the clock runs out.
How To Find the Special Time Capsule in The Sims 4 Blast from the Past Event
As you embark on the Blast from the Past event, your journey will lead you through the world to gather clues about a mysterious visitor named Emit. You'll be watching TV, scrolling through social media, and chatting with other Sims. The real challenge kicks in when you're tasked with finding the Special Time Capsule in *The Sims 4*.
The game hints that you should search for rocks in parks, which can be a bit vague. If you've reached this point, you've likely already met Emit at the park in Willow Creek—a great starting point for your quest. Explore the vicinity, and keep an eye out for a rock that seems to contain diamonds. Interact with this rock to dig for the Special Time Capsule. Remember, you might need to check multiple rocks, but rest assured, there are plenty around.
What’s Inside of the Special Time Capsule in The Sims 4?
Once you successfully locate the Special Time Capsule, the game prompts you to open it. Inside, you'll find an IOU note, which might feel a bit underwhelming after all your hard work. Nonetheless, read the note and head back to Emit to unlock more quests in the Blast from the Past event.
