How a zombie-themed quiz fits into class review
Teachers who want a Gimkit-style zombie game for review usually already have the material: a unit slide deck, a chapter PDF or a page of handwritten notes. DeckOwl builds the questions from that material, so the game tests what students were actually taught.
- Questions pulled from your own PDF, slides or notes
- Explanations on every question, so wrong answers get corrected
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month, studied in the browser
- Students get 40% off Plus or Pro with a school email
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes or photos of pages. Questions come from what your class actually covered.
Multiple choice and true/false
Open questions are included too, and each one has an explanation so wrong answers still teach something.
Export when you need it
PDF and DOCX export come with Plus. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export come with Pro for learning management systems.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or a photo of a page.
Pick the question types
Choose multiple choice, true/false or open questions for your zombie round.
Play or export
Study in the browser on the free plan, or export files on a paid plan.
A zombie theme works because students race through questions against a timer, and each correct answer keeps them ahead of the horde. The format is good for quick recall, so pair a round with a short review of the questions people missed.

Frequently asked questions
How long should a review game round be?
Keep each round to the core ideas of one lesson so students stay focused and the timer still feels meaningful. Short rounds also make it easier to review missed questions right after.
How should students study after playing a review game?
Go back over the questions they missed and read the explanations, then retake those questions a few days later. Spacing practice over time builds longer-lasting memory than one game session.
Can I export the quiz to a learning management system?
PDF and DOCX export are included in the Plus plan. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are included in the Pro plan.
Is there a free way to make a quiz from my notes?
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser with no card needed. Exports require a paid plan.
