Slightly Terrifying | A small company building big things
Slightly Terrifying introduces Cyrcys, The Cyrcys Company, Dysynyr, Zana Trust, and early work across games, retail, and real-world experiences.
What is here now
A few names. One point of view.
We build things that make real life more interesting, more beautiful, or easier to enter. Each has its own job. They share a bias toward useful work, strong character, and a world beyond the screen.
The Cyrcys Company
The wider company building technology, experiences, and place-based ventures around a more active, connected life.

Then there are the next things.
Our games studio, retail ideas, and other experience concepts are still being worked out. We give them room to become specific before we ask anyone else to believe in them.
Games
Original free-play concepts with real character and a clear line between entertainment and regulated gaming.
Retail
Selective product and retail ideas that could make the larger worlds feel tangible.
Experiences
Events and place-based ideas that make sense only when local people, practical evidence, and the moment line up.
How we work
Small is not a disclaimer.
It means the people making the promise are close to the work. We stay curious, make the thing, say what is real, and let each idea earn its next stage.
Come closer
If one of these worlds feels like yours, say hello.
We are open to thoughtful conversations with builders, operators, collaborators, and people who see a useful connection.
