Find the chest in desert

I have been asked to find the chest in the desert. I use the metal detector but all I found was the usual , metal rods, spaceship parts etc. Is there a particular place I should be looking?

There isn't a particulart place, but I've found that whenever I do it, the chest tends to be right at the back, close to the stage before you get to a sandstorm, on like one of the mounds of sand.

Good luck!

There is no chest, I have been searching for it since an hour now, and I keep wasting time refiling the MD in the furnace, then going back and searching. WHAT IS EVEN IN THE CHEST?

Guest said: 29th May 2014 | REPORT
Yes, I know for a fact that there IS a chest. I found it myself. Also, why would they bother getting you to find a nonexistant chest? Oh, btw: I sold it for 6.000 simoleans!

The chest is at the back of the water/oasis
Guest said: 31st Aug 2016 | REPORT
I haven't found it at all. I've looked around the landing craft thing, I've looked near the oasis, and if it's not near the spaceship, I give up.
Guest answered:

I found the chest right behind the pond, on top of the mountain of sand.. Smile

... What has that got to do with it?
Guest answered:

I'm so stuck I've been looking forever and I see the usual stuff.

Guest answered:

I couldnt find the chest. I looked everywhere in the desert but I gave up because firsly, I kept having to charge my detector... But secondly because I couldnt find it. I used my metal detector and all I found was the useral...
That Keilegh or something girl found it.

Guest said: 29th May 2014 | REPORT
What mirage?
Guest said: 6th Jan 2015 | REPORT
I found a chest. (Took me a while, finally found it near the back with the stones. I'm guessing the location is random.) But, what am I suppose to do with it once I have it? Sell it? The alien guy's literally willing to pay me $6,000
Guest answered:

You can sell the unharmed mummified aliens metal bars and lead rocks to the sims grocery store

Or you can Process BARS In the vault, for the same amount of money, just a little riskier. x

same
Guest said: 6th Jan 2015 | REPORT
The location is random, guys! But, there's higher chances that it'll be further away from the entrance to the desert. Keep looking and don't give up! I found it and you can too!
Guest said: 25th Jun 2017 | REPORT
i want to know what is in the chest.people say it is honest jackson.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guest answered:

I found it right behind the pond too; it's kind of annoying to find, it's like right on the edge of the sandstorm. Good luck xD

Could someone, like, I dunno, send in a picture or something? I am at a loss.
Guest answered:

I looked everywhere people keep saying near the oasis or the spaceship,but the game is already completed and apparently when you get the chest you can't do anything with it but only sell it for 6,000 at the shop is there really any point? -____-

Guest answered:

nope, its just to waste you some time, and to make the game "fun", so no not really worth the time, unless you'd like 6000 simoleans. x

I think the treasure chest changes from game to game, but they all seem to be in the back somewhere. I've never looked for it, but I do have a tip. What would be most efficient to do is make sure your detector is charged, then go the desert. Save your game, them look for the chest. If you don't find it, quit the game and load it again. Repeat as needed. This way, you don't have to keep running back and forth to the hotel to charge and recharge your metal detector and using up a load of fuel rods. Hope this helps :{D

Yes, it does. Thanks!
Guest answered:

OK so you need your metal detector. I found mine around the boulders next to the GREEN pond. Hope this helps. However, don't give up if it's not there. There is a few other places it could be, like in between the blue pond and the spaceship

Guest answered:

I found it in the oasis. I hope that helps somebody

Guest answered:

OK, here's a better answer than "its at the spaceship/ oasis/ near the back": the location is random and CHANGES if you leave the desert. What you wanna do is get out your metal detector and (in case you didn't know) there's an up-and-down slider on the side; you can use to enhance the image. Search the desert, and use the slider when you hit something, don't dig it up unless it's a Chest. The Metal Detector has enough battery for you to scour almost the whole main part of the desert before it runs out. In any case, you're given six hours to find it, that's more than enough time. If you run out if battery, go recharge, and try again as many times as necessary. You will find it eventually. What does it do? Nothing. But you can sell it in the store for a hefty sum of 6000 Simoleons, making it the most expensive/profitable thing in the game.
