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 surrounding a mysterious visitor. This guide focuses on locating Shards of Time, a crucial element in progressing through the event and earning valuable rewards.
The quest for Shards of Time begins after investigating the visitor and learning about these enigmatic objects. The game offers minimal guidance, hinting that they're hidden within everyday household items.
To maximize your chances of finding these elusive shards, focus your search on residential areas rich in potential hiding spots. Thoroughly examine couches, refrigerators, and other common household objects, both in your Sim's home and your neighbors'. Remember, not every search will yield a Shard of Time, but persistence pays off – feel free to repeatedly search the same items.
Once you've collected three Shards of Time (after a few minutes of diligent searching), return to Emit, located near the Special Time Capsule in the park. He'll guide you to the next stage of the event.
