Players take on the role of a humble window washer in the big city of Miniopolis, soon becoming embroiled in a plot by the greedy tycoon Daddy Bigbucks to take over the city. The story is much stronger this time around, with the player exploring three colorful city environments.
The gameplay involves traditional Sims-style interactions, such as satisfying motives, making friends, and decorating an apartment, alongside eight job minigames, a "xizzle" system that lets players learn special abilities, and several new vehicles. The Urbz: Sims in the City combines this with a wacky sense of humor.
The GameBoy Advance is the platform on which The Urbz: Sims in the City is released, under the genre of Action & Adventure. Released in 2004, players can experience the game's unique blend of gameplay and humor for themselves.
