Writing trivia for a London crowd

Planning a London pub quiz usually means writing rounds that mix history, landmarks, transport and the odd bit of pop culture, and that is hard to do well from scratch on a Tuesday night. DeckOwl takes the facts you already have, such as a guide to London landmarks or a set of quiz notes, and turns them into questions with answers and explanations.

Start from your own notes or a guide to London instead of searching for generic questions.
Mix multiple choice and true/false rounds with a final open-question round.
Read each explanation before the night so you can answer challenges confidently.
Export to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan if you want printed answer sheets.
