Customer Reviews
A Unique & Addictive Story
*Ötzi* is one of the most unique narrative podcasts I’ve ever heard. It’s a well-written story, and all of the actors are really talented. It’s a fast-paced drama, and surprisingly twisty. There’s action, betrayal, and even a love triangle! I was also surprised at how relatable the 5000-year-old characters were. It’s so addictive that I ended up binging the whole series in one night. If you like a good story brought to life by a fantastic cast, you won’t want to miss *Ötzi.”
Three thumbs up
I have been obsessed with Otzi. I really enjoyed the fictional telling of this tale!
Shameful historical Portrayal.
I give one star for performance drama.
Regardless, this corruption of the historical record is shameful.
A headman like Otzi would have immediately removed the thieving murderers head. Your assumption that Otzi was old and incapable of battle is preposterous. Otzi witnessed the murder of the northerner and was poised to execute Neolithic justice upon an unworthy tribal member.
Your portrayal of a Neolithic warrior chief as a submissive male cannot be imagined on any intellectual or historical level. This period is marked by leaders of Gilgamesh heroism.
No quarter was given for such insults.
Subversion of Humanities Story is as Capital as that I’ve the covetous thief.
