The Urbz: Sims in the City — About this game
Create an Urb and begin on King Tower's roof, helping janitor Kris Thistle while learning how the city works. Job minigames earn Simoleons, conversations build relationships and reputation, and hunger, energy and other needs compete for your time. Check the Goals list rather than wandering without a task. The DS edition adds Splicer Island and custom-pet activities to the city story. Start with one rooftop goal and a manageable work attempt, then restore needs before pursuing another conversation or mission.
