About Mesolit Games
Mesolit Games is an indie tabletop RPG studio by Jukka Ursin. Mesolit Games makes games nobody else makes: compact, precise, unapologetically original.
The catalog ranges from tactical dinosaur combat to hard sci-fi lunar survival to stone age political negotiation to a vampire game on a business card.
The games are small, dense, and complete. Most fit in an envelope. None contain filler. If a game is 12 pages, those 12 pages are the whole game: rules, scenario, art, everything you need to play.

Jukka Ursin
Mesolit Games is made by Jukka Ursin. I handle design, writing, art, layout, and publishing.
I make games about things I find fascinating and make them as well as I can. Dinosaurs. Lunar catastrophes. Stone age politics. Thermodynamics of deep time. What happens to people under pressure. Whatever it is, it gets the same care.
I am based in Finland, a country of endless forests and people who speak when they have something to say.
New releases are available now. Subscribe to the Mesolit Games mailing list for updates.
