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's challenges.
After investigating the visitor and learning about "Shards of Time," the game prompts you to embark on a scavenger hunt. The game offers limited clues, hinting that these shards might be found hidden within everyday household objects like couches and refrigerators.
To efficiently locate these elusive shards, focus your search on residential areas rich in potential hiding spots. Thoroughly examine items in your Sim's home or your neighbors' properties. Remember, not every search will yield a shard, but you can repeatedly search the same object. Persistence is key!
Once you've discovered three Shards of Time, return to Emit (located in the park near the Special Time Capsule). He'll guide you toward the next stage of the event.
