Essences are collectible resources in MySims, serving as fundamental components in crafting and paint creation. They're categorized into Emotions, Living Things, and Objects, each with a thematic link to specific Sim interests. Matching Essences to Sim preferences ensures happy customers and successful order completion. Most Essences function as both physical objects and paint ingredients in Build Mode.

Locating and Obtaining Essences

As you progress, new areas unlock, revealing additional Essences. Some Essences require specific tools (like the Crowbar for prospecting caves or the Saw for forest access), obtained through town level-ups.
