Unlocking the "Inventing the Past" quest in The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event requires locating Plathinum and Ironyum. Fortunately, this is a straightforward process.
This guide details how to efficiently find these resources:
To obtain Plathinum and Ironyum, simply locate areas with rocks and dirt mounds – parks are ideal. Pause the game to carefully scan the environment. Once you spot a suitable mound, interact with it to dig. Multiple attempts may be necessary.
If you're struggling to find dig sites, speeding up in-game time can accelerate the generation of rocks and dirt mounds. However, avoid prolonged periods of accelerated time to prevent missing potential digging spots.
