The second week of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is now live, bringing with it an intriguing twist involving a mysterious visitor. As you delve deeper into their backstory, you'll encounter a challenge: finding Shards of Time to progress and unlock exciting new rewards. Here’s your guide to locating these elusive Shards of Time in *The Sims 4*.
How To Find Shards of Time in Blast From the Past Event in The Sims 4
After conducting further research on the visitor and inquiring about the enigmatic “Shards of Time,” *The Sims 4* tasks you with a treasure hunt for these crucial items. The game hints that they're hidden within everyday household objects such as couches and refrigerators, but provides little else in the way of guidance.
Given the sparse information, your best bet is to venture into a residential area where such items are plentiful. Whether it's your own home or a neighbor's, start rummaging through every possible item until you uncover the three Shards of Time. Keep in mind that not every search will yield results, but you can search the same item multiple times, so persistence is key. After a thorough search, you should have all the Shards you need.
Once you've collected them, head back to Emit, who should still be lingering in the park near the Special Time Capsule. Present the Shards of Time to him, and he'll guide you through the next steps in the event.
