In-Game currencies/goods

Metaspace games may include a virtual, in-game currency (“Virtual Currency”) including, but not limited to Metacredits, coins, cash, or points, that may be purchased from Metaspace Studios for “real world” money if you are a legal adult in your country of residence. Games may also include virtual, in-game digital items (“Virtual Goods”) that may be purchased from Metaspace Studios for “real world” money or for Virtual Currency. Regardless of the terminology used, Virtual Currency and Virtual Goods may never be redeemed for “real world” money, goods or other items of monetary value from Metaspace Studios or any other party.

Other than a limited, personal, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable license to use the Virtual Goods or Virtual Currency in the games, you have no right or title in or to any such Virtual Goods or Virtual Currency appearing or originating in the games, or any other attributes associated with use of the games or stored within the games.

Metaspace Studios has the absolute right to manage, regulate, control, modify and/or eliminate such Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Goods as it sees fit in its sole discretion, and Metaspace Studios shall have no liability to you or anyone for the exercise of such rights.

Transfers of Virtual Currencies and Virtual Goods are strictly prohibited except where explicitly authorized within the games. Outside of the game, you may not buy or sell any Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods for “real world” money or otherwise exchange items for value. Any attempt to do so is in violation of these Terms and may result in a lifetime ban from Metaspace Studios services and possible legal action.

You agree that all sales of Virtual Goods and Currencies are final. No refunds will be given, except in our sole and absolute discretion. All Virtual Goods and Currencies are forfeited if your account is terminated or suspended for any reason, in Metaspace Studios' sole and absolute discretion, or if Metaspace Studios discontinues providing the games.
