Unlocking the Mysteries of The Sims 4's Blast from the Past Event: Locating Time Shards
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. A key element of this week's challenge involves acquiring elusive Time Shards to progress and unlock new rewards. This guide reveals the locations of these crucial items.
Following initial investigations and inquiries about "Shards of Time," players are tasked with locating these artifacts. The game offers minimal guidance, hinting only at their presence within everyday household objects like couches and refrigerators.
To efficiently locate these shards, focus your search on residential areas rich in potential hiding spots. Thoroughly examine furniture in your Sim's home or those of neighboring Sims. Remember, not every search will yield a shard, but persistence is key; you can repeatedly search the same object.
Once three Time Shards are found, return to Emit (located near the Special Time Capsule in the park). He will guide you towards the next stage of the event.
