How to prepare an online multiplayer pub quiz

Hosting an online multiplayer pub quiz usually means one person writes the questions, pastes them into a chat or document, and keeps score by hand. DeckOwl speeds up the writing step by turning your own trivia notes into a question set.

  • Upload a trivia outline, slides or notes and generate a question set from it.
  • Mix multiple choice, true/false and open questions in the same quiz.
  • Use the explanations to settle disputed answers during the round.
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan to share answer sheets with players.

Questions from your own material

Upload a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file or plain notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or open questions built from it.

Explanations for every answer

Each question includes a short explanation, so the host can read out why the right answer is right when a round is checked.

Exports for running the round

Paid plans export to PDF or DOCX so you can print answer sheets or share a document with players before the quiz starts.

How it works

Upload your trivia source

Add a document, slides or a photo of a page. Images are read with text recognition.

Pick a question type

Choose multiple choice, true/false or open questions, then generate a set sized for your rounds.

Run the round and export

Read questions aloud or share the list with players. Export to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan.

DeckOwl does not host a live game room where players log in and buzz in. You generate the questions here, then run the round on your video call or messaging app. Mixing question types, such as a few true/false items between multiple-choice ones, keeps players focused.

Start with a topic each round, such as world capitals or science basics, and upload a short source for it. Review the generated questions before the quiz so the answers match what your group expects.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Most online rounds work well with 8 to 12 questions, which keeps the pace up and avoids fatigue. Shorter rounds suit video calls better than long lists.

How do I write good general knowledge trivia questions?

Ask about one clear fact per question and write wrong options that sound plausible but are clearly false. Check that every answer can be verified from a reliable source.

Does DeckOwl host a live game for players to join?

No. DeckOwl generates the questions and explanations, and you run the round yourself on a call or chat. It does not include a live multiplayer game room.

Are exports included in the free plan?

No. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month and no exports. PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month.
