The Urbz: Sims in the City is a video game created for platforms like the Nintendo DS or Game Boy Advance, but mainly built for home consoles like the Nintendo GameCube or Sony's PlayStation 2, as well as the original Xbox, by Maxis and Griptonite Games and published by Electronic Arts on November 17, 2004, in North America, and March 11, 2005, in Europe.
The Urbz: Sims in the City, like its name suggests, is part of EA's hugely successful Sims franchise, but looks at the regular mechanics of the series from the perspective of customizing your own character and then helping him or her live in a busy urban environment, instead of a typical suburban environment, filled with quests that give you access to even more customization options, and even with unique appearances of celebrities like music groups the Black Eyed Pease.
UNLOCKABLES
Heidi Shadows
Heidi Shadows is a cheat ninja where you can buy Smoothies to get skill points and Simoleons. Heidi Shadows will sell cheats in the form of Smoothies. To find her, you must first link up to someone else to unlock the weird planet location. At the telephone booth in SimQuarter next to the Flea Market, go to the planet place.
Directly up at the top of the map on this planet, you will find some stairs. Use them to go up to the door. You will have a quick glance of a person (resembling like a ninja holding a flag). This is Heidi Shadows. To buy the cheats, you must go here starting at 10:00 a.m. Heidi Shadows will disappear, then reappear.
