Since May 2018, ICandy is in the process of acquiring 70 percent of PT Joyseed Berbagi Sukses. In May, the company signed a term sheet for the acquisition and later in October 2018 entered into a definitive agreement with Bernardus Boy Dozan Poerniawan and Joseph Putra Wibawa (vendors) to acquire 70% of Joyseed.

Earlier the consideration on the acquisition was around A$350,000; however, after the reduction of the acquisition shares from 70 percent to 67 percent, the consideration has been reduced to $335,000. The consideration will be settled by the issue of iCandy shares at a deemed issue price of A$0.09 each.

Based in Indonesia, Joyseed is an award-winning mobile game development studio which released its first game (Hollywhoot) in August 2018. In October 2018, ICandy started the pre-sale from its first-ever blockchain game, Cryptant Crab which generated strong presales from the gaming community, with over A$69,000 of revenue realized in the first ten days.
In November 2018, ICandy signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) to provide funding and knowledge sharing for nurturing of Malaysian game developers that are developing blockchain powered games.
