Why generate your own quiz instead of downloading one

Many hosts end up with the same printable pub quiz questions and answers UK sheets that everyone else has already seen, and half the answers are out of date or wrong. Writing a fresh round by hand takes hours that most people do not have.

  • Questions drawn from your own material, not a recycled sheet
  • Multiple choice, true/false and open questions in one set
  • Explanations for every answer to settle disputes quickly
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, with QTI and Moodle XML on Pro
Example UK general knowledge trivia questions

Built from your material

Pull questions from your own PDFs, slides, Word files or photographed pages, so the quiz matches the topics you want to cover.

Answers and explanations

Each question comes with a correct answer and a short explanation, so hosts can settle disputes at the bar without searching.

Export when you need it

Download to PDF or DOCX on Plus. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for teachers who run quizzes in a learning platform.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.

Choose the question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or open questions, then generate a set that suits your round.

Print or export

Review the questions, edit any you want to change, then export a printable copy.

DeckOwl reads your own notes or slides and writes questions with answers and explanations, so a round can be built around the topics your group actually cares about, whether that is local history, football or a themed night.

Because every question includes a short explanation, you can check the answers before the event and point to the reason when a team challenges one.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Many hosts use rounds of around ten questions, but the right length depends on how long your evening runs. Shorter rounds keep the energy up when there are several rounds to get through.

How can I make general knowledge answers easier to remember?

Review the questions in spaced intervals rather than cramming them the night before, so the answers stick over several sessions. Pairing each answer with its explanation also helps the fact stay in memory.

Can I export my quiz to PDF or Word?

Yes, PDF and DOCX export is included with Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export is available on Pro.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No, you can start on the free plan, which includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Exports are paid features.
