Writing your own round, not a printed one

Running a Sunday pub quiz in Edinburgh usually means finding fresh questions every week, and printed sets can feel generic. DeckOwl builds questions from material you choose, so you can cover Scottish history, Edinburgh landmarks or whatever your regulars have been asking for.

  • Questions drawn from your own notes, slides or scanned pages
  • Multiple-choice, true/false and open formats in one generation
  • Explanations for each answer so hosts can settle disputes quickly
  • Free plan to try it, with exports available on paid plans
Example Edinburgh general knowledge trivia questions
What kind of geological feature is Castle Rock, which Edinburgh Castle sits on?An extinct volcanic plug. Glaciers shaped it, which is why the rock stands high above the surrounding ground.
Which volcano-shaped hill overlooks Holyrood Park in Edinburgh?Arthur's Seat, an extinct volcano. Its craggy slopes are the eroded remains of its old volcanic structure.
Which author born in Edinburgh in 1859 created Sherlock Holmes?Arthur Conan Doyle. He was born in Edinburgh, so the city counts him among its literary figures.
Which small terrier statue stands near Greyfriars Kirkyard?Greyfriars Bobby. Legend says the Skye terrier guarded his owner's grave in the churchyard for years.
Which festival, held each August, is among the largest arts festivals in the world?The Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Its open-access programme fills venues across the city every August.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page covering the topics for your round.

Pick question types

Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions to match the pace of your night.

Review and read out

Check each answer and explanation before the quiz, then use them on the night.

Start with a few pages of notes or a short slide deck on your theme, such as the city's castles and festivals. Check every question before the night, since AI output still needs a human eye for accuracy and fairness.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Most hosts find that five to ten questions per round keeps the pace up and suits a typical crowd. Shorter rounds work better when the room is noisy.

How can I learn Edinburgh trivia before my team quiz?

Review a short set of facts each day rather than cramming the night before. Spaced repetition helps answers stick, and it is part of the Plus plan.

Can I export pub quiz questions?

Yes, on paid plans. Plus exports to PDF and DOCX, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. No credit card is needed to start.
