The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event has players on a scavenger hunt, but one task, locating the Special Time Capsule, is proving tricky. This guide shows you how to find it before the event ends.
Finding the Special Time Capsule in The Sims 4's Blast from the Past Event
The Blast from the Past event begins with a quest to learn about a mysterious visitor, Emit. This involves using various in-game activities like watching TV, checking social media, and interacting with other Sims. The challenge arises when you're tasked with finding the Special Time Capsule.
The clue is vague: look for rocks in parks. Having spoken to Emit in Willow Creek park, that's a logical starting point. Examine rocks in the area; one will contain what looks like diamonds. Interact with it to unearth the Special Time Capsule. Note that you might need to check several rocks.
The Contents of the Special Time Capsule
Opening the Special Time Capsule reveals an IOU note – a somewhat underwhelming reward for the effort involved. Read the note and return to Emit to unlock further quests within the event.
