    The Repairing Mantis is a short and surreal game in which we take on the role of a Mantis who wants to repair a bridge - the means in which we do this are incredibly bleak, which really is a consistent theme throughout the entire narrative. Everything is so dark and existential, I actually came away from this experience feeling pretty down. There are many content warnings around this game, so heed them well as it…
