Writing pub quiz questions for Edinburgh nights

DeckOwl does not list Edinburgh quiz nights or venues, so it will not tell you where to play. What it can do is write Edinburgh pub quiz questions from facts you already gather, such as a list of city landmarks, Scottish history notes or a sheet of general knowledge trivia.

  • Topic sheets for rounds on Edinburgh history, landmarks and local sport
  • Mixed rounds of multiple-choice and true/false questions
  • Open questions with explanations for tie-breakers
  • Exports to PDF or DOCX on Plus, and QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on Pro
