The second week of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is now live, offering players a deeper dive into the mystery of the enigmatic visitor. However, one of the challenges involves finding elusive Shards of Time, which are crucial for progressing and unlocking new rewards. Here's a detailed guide on how to locate these Shards of Time in *The Sims 4*.
How to Find Shards of Time in the Blast from the Past Event in The Sims 4
As you delve deeper into the visitor's backstory and inquire about the "Shards of Time," *The Sims 4* sets you on a quest to find these mysterious objects. The game hints that they can be discovered by searching everyday household items such as couches and refrigerators, but offers little more in terms of guidance.
Given the lack of specific directions, the best strategy is to explore residential areas where these items are plentiful. Whether it's your own home or a neighbor's, start rummaging through any accessible items. You'll need to find three Shards of Time, but remember, not every search will yield results. It's possible to search the same item multiple times, so persistence is key. After a bit of searching, you should uncover all the necessary Shards.
Once you've collected the Shards, return to Emit, who should be lingering in the park near the Special Time Capsule. Present the Shards to him, and he'll guide you on the next steps in the event.
