apologems
In-game currency given for free to the game's playerbase as apology for maintenance, glitches, or other issues or obstacles in game play. Derived from a portmanteau of the words "apology" and "gems", because many games use gems, jewels, or diamonds to represent in-game currency. Apologems often consist of particularly valuable forms of in-game currency, such as those which can be obtained via microtransactions.
