Over the years, many newsletters have been created in order for the small group at Cyberlife/Creature Labs to communicate with the much larger group of Creatures users.

The Creatures Newsletter
This was the first newsletter distributed to the Creatures Community by Cyberlife and ran from June 1997 to February 1998 (see history). Regular features included the Norn-based comic strip River and Petal and a closing item from Toby Simpson. It was initially edited by Ben Simpson, but the position moved to Paul Dobson in November 1997.
