About Us
A different approach to gaming.

Sleepy Giant is an independent online game company. Founded in early 2007, we are privately held and headquartered in Newport Beach, California.

At Sleepy Giant, we run games. Our collaborative approach to game management helps our partner studios focus on the creative aspects of game development.

Our Focus

We run persistent online games and communities of all sizes. We specialize in working with game studios to get their games to market, through a blend of strategic planning, smart design, cutting edge technologies, rock solid operations and real-time marketing. Our team takes an analytical approach to games; matching and supporting our creative counterparts at development studios.

Strategic Partners, Unique Approach

We provide partners with a unique mix of robust operational services and deep strategic insight. We form long term partnerships for the management of mission critical business services. We assume responsibilities, not tasks. When appropriate, we invest a portion of our fee in the project’s success and share in the upside.

Our Team

We are a passionate group that loves what we do.

Sleepy Giant started as two people, Matthew J. Hannus and David S. Lee. Today, Sleepy Giant is a formidable group of talented individuals dedicated to serving the needs of content creators and the gaming public.

We have offices in Newport Beach, CA and Chicago, IL.

Working With Us

Sleepy Giant is entrepreneurial and opportunistic with regards to the opportunities we pursue. We are always on the hunt for new projects with great people. Although we have preferred platforms and genre preferences, our team’s curiosity and sense of exploration keep us open to new ideas and always looking to build new relationships within the video game and entertainment industry as a whole.
