Uncover the Secrets of The Sims 4's Blast from the Past Event: Locating Shards of Time
The second week of The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event is underway, presenting players with the intriguing mystery of the time-traveling visitor. However, progressing through the event and unlocking rewards requires finding elusive Shards of Time. This guide reveals their hidden locations.
Following initial investigations and inquiries about "Shards of Time," the game tasks you with a scavenger hunt. The clues are vague, hinting at their presence within everyday household objects like couches and refrigerators.
To maximize your chances, focus your search on residential areas abundant in these common items. Explore your Sim's home or your neighbors' properties, systematically searching every object. Remember, not every search will yield a Shard, but you can repeatedly search the same item. Persistence is key!
Once you've collected three Shards of Time, return to Emit (located near the Special Time Capsule in the park). He'll guide you through the next stage of the event.
