How to Get News Alerts, Newsletters and Puzzles from Oberon Review

Updated

Oberon Review offers three separate ways to stay engaged beyond simply reading the site: email newsletters and breaking news alerts, interactive puzzles, and the digital edition of the paper. You can reach all of them from the Quick Links or Discover areas of the homepage. Some content sits behind a digital subscription, so expect a paywall on parts of the site even though the newsletter sign-up and puzzle pages themselves are entry points you can browse.

Newsletters and breaking news alerts

The site promotes two email options directly:

  • Breaking News alerts — sent when major stories break.
  • Daily Headlines — a round-up of the day's news delivered to your inbox.

To sign up, look for the Newsletters link in the Quick Links menu or the "Newsletters & Alerts" section on the homepage, then follow the prompts to register your email address. The homepage also shows a personalised greeting ("Good evening") and a My Account area, which is where you manage saved stories and newsletter preferences once you have an account.

If you only want headlines without email, the same homepage surfaces the latest stories by section — News, Sport, Noticeboard, Entertainment, Tributes & Funerals, Classifieds, Lifestyle, Explore and Travel.

Interactive puzzles

Oberon Review hosts three puzzles under its Interactive Puzzles entry:

Puzzle What it is
Crossword A standard crossword grid
Sudoku Number-placement logic puzzle
Ultimate Trivia A general knowledge quiz

Reach them via the Interactive Puzzles link in Quick Links or the Discover block on the homepage. These are browser-based, so no app install is described — you open the page and play.

Today's Paper and the digital subscription

The Today's Paper link opens the digital version of the print edition, described on the site as part of a digital subscription. The subscription page states that a digital subscription includes:

  • Access to content from all websites in your region (the network includes titles such as Central Western Daily, Daily Liberal, Western Advocate, Blayney Chronicle, Lithgow Mercury, Mudgee Guardian, Narromine News, Nyngan Observer and Wellington Times).
  • Unlimited content.
  • Digital versions of the print editions via Today's Paper.

Pricing and exact terms are not stated in the material available here, so check the View Subscription Offers page for current rates and conditions before deciding.

Other tools worth knowing

  • ViewJobs — a job listings section covering opportunities across Australia.
  • My saved List — save articles to read later once signed in.
  • Network — jump to other regional titles in the same group.

Common snags

  • If a story opens with a prompt to subscribe, that article is part of the premium content rather than a broken link.
  • Newsletter sign-up and puzzle access are separate from a paid subscription — you can use those entry points without necessarily holding a full digital subscription, but premium articles will still ask you to subscribe.
  • If you are already signed in and still see the subscribe prompt, check that your account is active in My Account.
