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. But unlocking those sweet rewards requires a bit of detective work—namely, finding elusive Shards of Time. Here's your guide.

How to Find Shards of Time in The Sims 4's Blast from the Past Event

After some investigating and asking around about "Shards of Time," The Sims 4 tasks you with a scavenger hunt. The game's hints are vague, suggesting a search of everyday objects like couches and refrigerators.

The best approach? Head to a residential area—your own home or a neighbor's—and start searching! Examine every couch, fridge, and anything else that looks searchable. Remember, not every search will yield a Shard, but you can check the same item multiple times. Persistence pays off!

After a few minutes of diligent searching, you should have your three Shards. Return to Emit (he'll still be hanging around the park near the Special Time Capsule) and show him your finds. He'll guide you to the next stage of the event.
