How To Break & Repair a Broken Object in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

Author : David Feb 21,2025

The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event offers numerous rewards, but acquiring them presents challenges. One particularly tricky task involves breaking and repairing an object. This guide details how to accomplish this.

Week 2's challenge requires raising your Sim's Handiness skill to level 2 or higher and then repairing a broken object. The difficulty lies in identifying a broken item. The easiest solution is to intentionally break something. While using the "prank" interaction is an option, it requires specific Sim traits. A simpler method is to repeatedly use an item until it breaks.

The Ambassador toilet is an inexpensive choice. Using it approximately a dozen times will cause it to malfunction, thus fulfilling the "broken object" requirement. This can be done by your Sim or by inviting guests to use it.

Repairing the broken object is straightforward once your Handiness skill reaches level 2. Simply select the "Repair" interaction on the broken item. The repair process takes a few seconds, after which the toilet will be fixed, completing the challenge.
