Biography[]
The Urbz: Sims in the City (handheld)[]
Lincoln is a Nerdie in The Urbz: Sims in the City for handheld and can be found in Urbania and Miniopolis Chronicle. He is a wheelchair user and does not take a major role in the storyline, though he does make an appearance during Reality Show.
The Sims 2 (PSP)[]
Lincoln reappears in The Sims 2 for PlayStation Portable. He is a journalist and can be usually found in the library in Deadtree. He no longer has a wheelchair like he did in The Urbz: Sims in the City because he has a special belt made by Isaac Rossum that enables him to float. He wants the player's Sim to find some stuff about Virginya Feng, who also appears to be his romantic interest. The player's Sim then finds out that Virginya Feng is a vampire after getting bitten and infected with vampirism and has to find a cure. After the Sim tells Lincoln about their findings, they will earn a hefty amount of money.
Lincoln Broadsheet is also one of the few Sims that the player can sell secrets to. He is mostly interested in other Sims' Personal secrets and Secrets of the Government.
