The second week of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is now live, bringing with it the opportunity to delve deeper into the mystery of the enigmatic visitor. Yet, a significant challenge arises in preventing players from progressing and unlocking new rewards. Here's a guide on where to find 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 further into the mystery of the visitor and inquire about the so-called "Shards of Time," *The Sims 4* sets you on a quest to find these elusive objects. The game offers scant guidance, hinting only that they might be hidden within everyday items such as couches and refrigerators.
Given the lack of specific directions, your best bet is to venture into a residential area, where these common household items are plentiful. Whether you choose to rummage through your neighbor's belongings or your own, systematically search every possible item until you uncover three Shards of Time. It's worth noting that not every search will yield results, but you can repeatedly check the same items, so persistence is key.
After a thorough search, which should take just a few minutes, you'll have all the Shards you need. Once obtained, 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 of your journey.
