How to Get the Mysterious Fossil in Travel Town (Step-by-Step Guide)

Trying to get the Mysterious Fossil in Travel Town? It’s not something you’ll find easily unless you know the steps. The game gives you hints, but not the full picture. So here’s a step-by-step guide on how to get the Mysterious Fossil in Travel Town.
- Step 1: Start with the Beach Bucket to Spawn Mysterious Letters
- Step 2: Collect 4 Mysterious Letters and Turn Them into a Mysterious Island
- Step 3: Tap the Mysterious Island to Get the First Fossil Piece
- Step 4: Complete 10 Customer Orders to Unlock the Second Fossil Piece
- Step 5: Use the Mystery Order to Combine the Two Fossil Halves
- Step 6: Complete the Final Order That Uses the Mysterious Fossil
Step 1: Start with the Beach Bucket to Spawn Mysterious Letters
Tap the Beach Bucket Beach on your board to spawn shells, sand castles and other beach items.

What you’re really looking for are Mysterious Letters. These are rare drops, so keep tapping and make sure your board has enough space for new items to appear.
Step 2: Collect 4 Mysterious Letters and Turn Them into a Mysterious Island
This part takes a bit of time. You need to collect 4 Mysterious Letters from the Beach Bucket. They don’t drop all at once, so just keep tapping and clearing space on your board.

Once you have 4 letters, merge them two by two. That gives you 2 Treasure Maps.

Now merge the two Treasure Maps and you’ll unlock the Mysterious Island.

Step 3: Tap the Mysterious Island to Get the First Fossil Piece
Place the Mysterious Island on your board and tap it. You’ll get the first half of the Mysterious Fossil, plus some coins and diamonds.

Now it’s time to unlock the second half.
Step 4: Complete 10 Customer Orders to Unlock the Second Fossil Piece
After getting the first half of the Mysterious Fossil, a Mystery Order will show up. This special order asks you to complete 10 normal customer orders.

Just keep playing and fulfilling customer orders as usual. Once you hit 10, you’ll be rewarded with the second half of the Mysterious Fossil.
Step 5: Use the Mystery Order to Combine the Two Fossil Halves
You now have both halves of the fossil, but you can’t merge them directly on your board.
Instead, a new Mystery Order will appear that asks you to deliver the two fossil halves. Once you complete that, you’ll finally get the full Mysterious Fossil.

Step 6: Complete the Final Order That Uses the Mysterious Fossil
Now that you have the full fossil, there’s one last step.
A final order will appear asking for the Mysterious Fossil. Complete it to get your special reward.

And that’s it, you’ve completed the full fossil chain!

- Keep your board as clear as possible to allow new items to spawn.
- Don’t ignore Mystery Orders. These are key to completing the fossil chain.
