The Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is packed with exciting challenges and rewards, but some tasks can be tricky. One of the key objectives during Week 2 is to break and then repair a broken object. Here’s a detailed guide on how to accomplish this task.
How to Find a Broken Object in The Sims 4
During Week 2 of the Blast from the Past event, you need to raise your Handiness level to 2 or higher, which is straightforward. However, the real challenge lies in finding a broken object to repair. Since there's no clear indicator of broken items in your world, the best strategy is to intentionally break something.
You can break an item by repeatedly using it. A simple and effective method is to install The Ambassador toilet in your home. This is the cheapest adult toilet available, making it more prone to breaking. Use it about a dozen times, and it will start spraying water, indicating it's broken. You can do this yourself or invite others to help speed up the process. Once broken, The Ambassador toilet will be recognized as a broken object in *The Sims 4*.
How to Repair a Broken Object in The Sims 4
With your Handiness skill at level 2 or higher, you can repair the broken object. Simply approach the broken toilet and select the "Repair" option. It will take a few moments, but once completed, you'll stop the water spray and successfully complete the challenge for the Blast from the Past event.
