Post-game activity - time capsules#726

My idea is that the inhabitants of the island, hoping to eventually return to the island, buried “time capsules” in the ground to be dug up once they returned. They did this as a sort of a commitment that they would return someday. These would be metal chests or safes containing some valued personal belongings and they would be buried around the island.

The idea is that after the volcano is destroyed, you would be given a quest to dig up all 10 or however many times capsules. For each one you recover you would be given an award, you would get to choose 1 item from each time capsule to keep for yourself. Once you have recovered all 10 you would be given a steam achievement.

Interesting, but I don’t really get the point of getting items after finishing the game, which is when you don’t need anymore items. Plus nothing tells us we’ll still be playing around when people get back…

Besides, without the eruptions, resources don’t seem to regenerate, so you would eventually run out of the much needed coal to keep your everything running, at which point you no longer have a reason to keep playing
