Why a custom pub quiz beats a generic one

A good trivia night depends on questions your crowd can answer with a fair chance of getting one right. A pub quiz creator built on your own reference material lets you aim each round at the subjects you choose.

  • Cover a single theme per round so teams can focus
  • Include one or two harder questions in each round
  • Check every answer against your source before the night
  • Keep the question count short enough to finish in the time allowed
