Artifact Spots are distinguished by small, wiggling worms or twigs on the ground, signaling hidden treasures when dug up with a hoe. These spots yield a variety of items, including lost books, artifacts for the local museum collection, resources, and geodes. Their appearance is random across the game's world, and they reset daily, offering players ongoing opportunities to uncover rare and valuable items that contribute to completing collections and unlocking rewards.
