The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event offers enticing rewards, but acquiring them presents a challenge. One particularly tricky task involves breaking and repairing an object. This guide outlines the process.
Week 2's challenge requires raising your Sim's Handiness skill to level 2 or higher and subsequently repairing a broken item. The difficulty lies in identifying a broken object. The simplest solution is to intentionally break something.
While "pranking" an object works, it necessitates a specific Sim trait, adding unnecessary complexity. A more straightforward approach is to repeatedly use an item until it breaks. The Ambassador toilet, being inexpensive, is ideal. Using it approximately a dozen times will cause it to malfunction. This can be done by your Sim or by inviting guests.
Repairing the broken object is straightforward once your Sim's Handiness skill reaches level 2. Simply select the "Repair" option. The repair process takes a short time, resolving the toilet's issues and completing the Blast from the Past challenge.
