The second week of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is now underway, offering players a deeper dive into the mystery of the enigmatic visitor. However, a key challenge is finding the elusive Shards of Time, which are essential for unlocking new rewards. Here’s how you can 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 items. The game hints that they might be hidden within everyday household objects like couches and refrigerators, but offers little more in terms of guidance.
Given the sparse clues, the best strategy is to explore residential areas where such items are plentiful. Whether it's your neighbor's home or your own, start searching through every possible item until you uncover three Shards of Time. Keep in mind that not every search will yield results, but you can check the same items multiple times. Persistence is key, so don't give up if your initial searches come up empty.
After a short while of searching, you should have collected all the necessary Shards of Time. Once you have them, return to Emit, who should be lingering near the park, close to the Special Time Capsule. Present the Shards to him, and he will guide you through the next steps in the event.
