Unlocking the Mysteries of The Sims 4's Blast from the Past Event: Finding Shards of Time
The second week of The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event is underway, presenting players with the intriguing task of uncovering the secrets of a mysterious visitor. A key challenge lies in locating elusive Shards of Time to progress and earn new rewards. This guide reveals the secrets to their discovery.
Following initial investigations and inquiries about "Shards of Time," The Sims 4 prompts players to embark on a scavenger hunt. The game offers limited guidance, hinting at their presence within everyday household items like couches and refrigerators.
To maximize your chances, focus your search on residential areas abundant in these everyday objects. Whether it's your Sim's home or a neighbor's, systematically examine every item. Remember, not every search will yield a Shard, but persistence pays off – feel free to repeatedly search the same items.
After a short search, you should locate the required three Shards. Return to Emit (located near the Special Time Capsule in the park) to present your findings and unlock the next stage of the event.
