1. 1遊戲內(的)。玩家也說「局內」;「in-game purchase」在台灣常叫遊戲內購。

    Something in-game happens inside the electronic game itself, not in real life. An in-game purchase is money you spend for things that exist only in the game; an in-game event is a special thing the game runs for players; in-game chat is talking to other players while you play. People use it a lot with video games and phone games. Though actually some speakers stretch it to board games or even sport, the usual modern meaning is the world on the screen. It is everyday talk among players, not a fancy word. You mostly put it in front of a noun: in-game money, in-game item, in-game story.

    「in-game」指發生在電子遊戲裡面,而不是現實生活中。例如 in-game purchase 是花錢買只存在遊戲裡的東西,in-game event 是遊戲為玩家舉辦的特別活動,in-game chat 是玩的時候和其他玩家聊天。它常用在電玩和手機遊戲裡,是玩家之間的日常用語,不是什麼花俏的字。

    大多放在名詞前面,例如 in-game money(遊戲內的錢)、in-game item(遊戲內的道具)、in-game story(遊戲內的劇情)。有些人會把它延伸到桌遊,甚至體育,但現代常見的意思仍然是螢幕上的遊戲世界。
