Gimkit-style zombie review from your own notes

If you want a Gimkit-style zombie quiz, DeckOwl does not run live games, but it writes one from your own material. Upload the slides or notes for your unit and it produces multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions with explanations you can study in the browser.

  • Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions from one upload
  • Explanations for every answer, so wrong responses teach something
  • Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of pages
  • Free plan includes 5 generations a week and browser study

Three question types

Exports on paid plans

Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slides, a Word file or notes. No credit card is needed to start.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions for your zombie unit.

Study and review

Answer in the browser, read the explanations, and retry the questions you missed.

Zombie topics vary a lot. A biology unit might cover fungal control of insects, a computing class might cover zombie processes, and a finance course might cover zombie companies. Because the questions come from your text, the quiz matches the exact definitions and terms your instructor used.

Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki, CSV, QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML depend on your plan, so check the pricing page before you plan a class-wide upload.

Frequently asked questions

What is a zombie process in computing?

A zombie process is a finished child process whose exit status has not yet been collected by its parent, so it still appears in the process table. It uses no CPU or memory beyond that table entry, and it is removed once the parent reads its status.

How should I study the zombie ant fungus for a biology exam?

Learn the fungus name, the host behavior and the stages of infection, then test yourself on each stage. Explanations help you see why each step follows the last.

Can DeckOwl make a Gimkit-style game?

DeckOwl creates quiz questions but does not host live games. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export is available on the Pro plan if your platform imports those formats.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 5 generations a week and browser study, but exports require a paid plan. Students get 40% off with a school email.
