Writing better questions for an imposter game review
Teachers who run a gimkit imposter game usually want the questions to come from the unit they just covered, not from a generic bank. DeckOwl reads your slides, PDF, DOCX, plain notes or photos of a page and writes questions with an explanation for each one, so the review stays tied to what the class learned.
- Pick one unit per round so every player works from the same material.
- Write true/false statements that have only one defensible reading.
- Read the explanation before the round so you can settle disputes quickly.
- Save the stronger questions and reuse them in later sessions.
Built from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a page. The questions come from the unit you actually taught.
Explanations for every answer
Each question includes a short explanation, so when a player challenges an answer, the group can settle it from the notes.
Question types that fit a review round
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions, depending on how you want players to argue and recall.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add slides, a PDF, a DOCX file or a photo of your handout. Text recognition reads the photo.
Pick the question type
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the set from your own material.
Run the round
Copy the questions into the review game you already use, and check the explanations before players ask.
Good questions for a hidden-role round have one clearly correct answer that a classmate can check against the notes. Keep each question on a single idea, because vague or double-meaning questions let the imposter hide behind disagreement instead of recall.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write questions that work well in an imposter game?
Keep each question about one idea, with a single correct answer that a classmate could check from the notes. Avoid questions where two answers could reasonably be right.
What should each review round cover?
Pick one lesson or unit per round so players are working from the same material. Shorter rounds on one topic are easier to discuss than long mixed sets.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start. Exports are not included on the free plan.
Which export formats are available?
PDF and DOCX exports are on Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML exports are on Pro, which costs $14.99/month.
