Question Summary:
Is the following online internet game permissible?

Question Detail:

Assalamualaikum.
I've been playing an online internet game about people working and developing themselves. In that game, we can work to get virtual game money. The wage of working that we got is according to our health. If our health is 100% we will get 100% wage. But if our health is 50%, we will only get 50% wage.
To improve our health, we have 2 choices. The first choice is ti rest. This will gain health slowly. But the second choice is to drink "wine" in that game. By drinking wine, we will gain health fast.
My question is, is it HARAM to drink that virtual game wine? I ask this because in this game, we have the ability to convert the virtual game money into real money. I fear that the money is HARAM if I drink that virtual wine. Jazakumullah.
