Each question includes a short reason for the correct answer, so you can settle disputes at the bar without checking your phone.

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages, and questions come from what you actually provide.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or photo of notes. Trivia books, local history handouts and your own research all work.

Choose the question types

Select multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and set how many you want for each round.

Review and run the quiz

Check the questions and explanations, then use them on the night. Plus and Pro users can export to PDF or DOCX to print answer sheets.

Starting from your own sources helps. A local history article, a city guide or a set of your notes gives you specific material to turn into questions, so the round reflects what your players will find interesting.

Good questions have one clearly correct answer, and the explanation should be short enough to read aloud. Review each generated question before the night and remove any that are too obscure for your crowd.
