The limited-time event in *The Sims 4* has players buzzing as they search for hidden treasures across their virtual worlds. One particularly puzzling task in the Blast from the Past event is locating the Special Time Capsule. Here's a detailed guide to help you find it before the event concludes.
Upon entering the Blast from the Past event, you'll embark on a quest to gather clues about a mysterious visitor named Emit. This involves watching TV, exploring social media, and conversing with other Sims. The real challenge, however, comes when you're tasked with finding the Special Time Capsule.
The game provides minimal guidance, only suggesting that you search for rocks in parks. If you've reached this point, you'll have already spoken to Emit at the park in Willow Creek, making it an ideal starting point. Explore the vicinity until you spot a rock that seems to contain diamonds. Approach and interact with it to dig for the Special Time Capsule. Be prepared to check multiple rocks, but rest assured, there are plenty to explore.
Once you've located the Special Time Capsule, you'll be prompted to open it. Inside, you'll find an IOU note, which might seem underwhelming after your efforts. Nevertheless, read the note and return to Emit to unlock further quests within the Blast from the Past event.
