Why generate your own round instead of printing a generic one

Hosting a pub quiz means writing a fresh round every week, and generic lists rarely match your crowd or the topics you want to cover. Ready-made sets of multiple choice pub quiz questions can work as a starting point, but DeckOwl builds a set from the material you choose, with an explanation attached to each answer so you can verify it before the night.

  • Write rounds on history, geography, science or film without starting from a blank page.
  • Keep questions to one clearly correct answer with plausible distractors.
  • Use the explanations to settle disputes and to prepare a host sheet.
  • Start free with no credit card, then move to Plus or Pro when you need exports.

Review and export

Remove anything too easy or too obscure, then study it in the browser or export it on a paid plan.

Upload a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file, notes or a photo of a page, and the generator writes multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions. Review the set, cut anything too easy or too obscure, and run it again on a new theme for next week.

Frequently asked questions

How many multiple choice questions should a pub quiz round have?

Many hosts run rounds of around 8 to 12 questions, but the right length depends on your crowd and how long the evening runs. Test a round with friends before the night to see how the pacing feels.

How do I write trivia questions with one clearly correct answer?

Keep the wrong options plausible but clearly false, avoid all of the above or none of the above, and check each fact against a reliable source. Ask someone else to answer the set blind to catch ambiguous wording.

Does DeckOwl export to PDF or DOCX?

Exports to PDF and DOCX are part of the Plus plan, which costs $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. You can start on the free plan without entering a credit card and generate sets from your own material right away.
