ZKcandy aims to revolutionize Web3 game development by creating immersive gaming ecosystems where users have true ownership of their digital assets.
The platform leverages AI to animate non-player characters (NPCs), develop dynamic storylines, and deliver personalized experiences. With a focus on mobile-first Web3 games, ZKcandy is positioning itself to tap into the rapidly expanding global mobile gaming market.
During its open testnet phase, ZKcandy attracted 230,000 active users and established 2.46 million wallets across five games. These achievements have positioned ZKcandy as a leading ZK Chain within ZKsync’s Elastic Network, supported by partnerships with entities like Layer3, Aethir, Rarible, and Out Of The Nest. The mainnet launch aims to further expand its active user base in the coming months.
Kin Wai Lau, CEO of ZKcandy, stated,
“We are proud to make ZKcandy available to the general audience… Connecting mobile gaming and Web3 is a solution long overdue, and we are privileged to have the right team to do it”.
Developed by iCandy Interactive in collaboration with Matter Labs, ZKcandy utilizes ZKsync technology to create an interoperable gaming ecosystem. ZKsync employs zero-knowledge proofs and has attracted over $1.5 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL).
ZKcandy leverages ZKsync’s technology to facilitate fast transactions and low fees while enabling seamless communication across chains within the Elastic Network. By creating immersive ecosystems that feature unscripted storylines and dynamic NPCs, ZKcandy targets mobile-first Web3 games and simplifies onboarding, promoting mass adoption.
Following the mainnet launch, ZKcandy will roll out promotional campaigns and allocate 5% of its native token supply for incentives. Developers are also invited to apply for the ZKcandy grant.
Meanwhile, SOL Arena, a Web3 battle game developed by Chillchat, launched its $CHILL token in March 2025 to enhance its crypto wagering and in-game rewards system. Following a successful NFT mint and growing player base since its Open Beta launch in September 2024, the Solana-supported game will introduce a High Roller Mode, allowing significant $CHILL bets. The token launch will also enable an airdrop for active players and NFT holders, with a full game release planned for mid-2025, including mobile versions.
