Where To Find Shards of Time in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

The second week of The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event is here, offering players a deeper dive into the mysterious visitor's story. However, preventing the visitor's progress and securing those sweet rewards requires a bit of detective work. This guide reveals the secrets to finding Shards of Time.

After investigating the visitor and learning about "Shards of Time," The Sims 4 tasks you with a scavenger hunt. The game offers minimal guidance, hinting that these shards are hidden within everyday objects like couches and refrigerators.

The best approach is to explore a residential area, where such items are plentiful. Search your own home or your neighbors' – thoroughly examine every item. Remember, not every search yields a shard, but you can repeatedly check the same object. Persistence is key!

After a few minutes of searching, you should locate three Shards of Time. Return to Emit (he'll likely still be near the Special Time Capsule in the park). Show him your findings; he'll guide you to the next stage.
