The limited-time event in *The Sims 4* has players buzzing with excitement as they hunt for various items around their world. One task, in particular, has caused quite a stir: finding the Special Time Capsule during the Blast from the Past event. Time is ticking, so let's dive into where you can find this elusive item before the event ends.
As you embark on the Blast from the Past event, your journey begins with collecting information about a mysterious visitor named Emit. This involves watching TV, checking social media profiles, and chatting with other Sims. While these tasks are straightforward, the real challenge comes when you're tasked with locating the Special Time Capsule.
The game provides minimal guidance, simply suggesting to search for rocks in parks. If you've already spoken to Emit at the park in Willow Creek, you're on the right track. Explore the area thoroughly until you spot a rock that seems to have diamonds inside. Approach it and interact with it to dig for the Special Time Capsule. Keep in mind, you might need to check multiple rocks, but there are plenty to choose from.
Upon finding the Special Time Capsule, you'll be prompted to open it. Inside, you'll discover an IOU note, which might feel a bit underwhelming after all the effort. Nonetheless, read the note and then return to Emit to unlock further quests in the Blast from the Past event.
