With the announcement of the retro rerelease of MySims, everyone is excited to relive their favorite memories in the coziest spin-off of The Sims series. Making friends with neighbors, designing houses, and building up your town are all a part of the fun.
However, for those who are newer to the franchise and have only played The Sims 4, you might be surprised at the familiar faces you can find in MySims. Here are all the townies who got their start in the cute spin-off games first.
All Sims 4 townies you can meet in MySims
Candy Behr
Before she was the world of Windenburg’s greatest DJ, Candy had a different name, DJ Candy Supergroove in MySims. While they look a bit different, they both share the same name and love of DJing. In MySims, she’ll return to town and open up Club Candy, the most popular nightclub out there.
In Widenburg, she lives with her sister teenage sister Yuki, and co-workers Joaqui and Dominic. She mainly spends her time DJing, as she works in the entertainer career, but she also loves dancing. You can even find DJ Candy’s MySims trophy in her room.
Yuki Behr
Much like her older sister, Yuki also got her start in MySims. While they are the same person, in Sims 4 Yuki is quite different from her counterpart. For starters, Yuki isn’t related to Candy in MySims, and has a drastically different appearance, with dark hair and skin and a love of the dark and spooky.
Yuki Behr, on the other hand, loves video gaming and hacking. While the two aren’t particularly similar, simply sharing a name, you can find Yuki’s trophy in Yuki Behr’s room, confirming that both characters are just alternate versions of each other.
Liberty Lee
The BFF household found in Willow Creek in Sims 4 is actually just one big reference to the MySims series. Liberty is an aspiring astronaut who loves all things geeky, which is pretty close to how she is in MySims.
Liberty also appears very similar to her chibi counterpart, with a green hat, pigtails, and bright yellow pants. Her geeky personality remains her primary trait, and even the love triangle between her, Summer, and Travis that began in MySims Kingdom is brought over.
Summer Holiday
Summer, much like Liberty, is one of the three members of the BFF household found in the fourth installment of the series. She’s a young adult who loves cooking, which is a bit of a departure from the Summer she was inspired by.
In MySims, Summer is instead a bright and peppy cheerleader. While her physical appearance remains consistent, with blonde hair and preppy blue clothing, her personality changes quite a bit. In fact, in MySims, Summer dislikes the tasty interest, which includes cooking and baking.
Travis Scott
The final member of the BFF household is one of the most faithful to his MySims counterpart, retaining the same interests, personality, and appearance. In fact, Travis looks practically identical in The Sims 4 to how he appears in the spin-off.
Travis also keeps his love of programming and gaming, although in MySims he’s a former CEO always on the hunt for the latest and greatest tech around. The love triangle from MySims follows the characters to the fourth game, and you’re given free rein on whether Travis chooses Liberty or Summer, or neither (or both, thanks to the different romance dynamics).
Chaz MacFreeling
While this Sim isn’t initially placed anywhere, the team officially released him on the gallery for you to play with to your heart’s content. Chaz MacFreeling is Princess Cordelia’s second pirate boyfriend, who is incredibly well-groomed, but also incredibly vain.
This character may be a reference to Chaz McFreely, a daredevil Sim that you can invite to be a resident of your town in MySims. While the two vary in personality and appearance quite drastically, there’s no denying that The Sims 4 is likely referencing the MySims character with a name that close.
Bonus – Vincent Skullfinder
Okay, let me explain. You can’t actually find Vincent as a townie in Sims 4. However, if you reach level nine in the archaeology skill included with Jungle Adventures, you’ll receive various artifacts from Sir Vincent Skullfinder to identify. This matches up with his MySims counterpart, who is a famous archaeologist and explorer who loves digging up new fossils.
So, while he doesn’t appear officially as a premade Sim, he still gets his spot in the game as long as you have the game pack installed. He also appears in The Sims 3, as a deceased Sim in Sunset Valley’s graveyard.
