Why generate your own trivia instead of printing a generic sheet

Most free sheets online come with answer keys, but the questions rarely match the topics your group or class covers. If you want a printable ready-made sheet, DeckOwl does not ship pre-written packs. Instead, it creates a custom set of free pub quiz trivia answers from the material you give it.

  • Keep each round short enough that teams finish before the next one begins.
  • Mix easy warm-up questions with a few harder ones to keep the room engaged.
  • Check every answer against your source material before you read it aloud.
  • Save the explanations for the host so disputed answers can be settled quickly.

Multiple-choice and true/false

Mix multiple-choice, true/false and open questions so each round has a range of difficulty.

Explanations with every answer

Each answer comes with a short explanation, so the host can settle disputes quickly at the table.

How it works

Upload your source

Add the PDF, slides, notes or photos you want the trivia to cover.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and generate a set.

Review and use

Check the answers, edit anything off, then study in the browser or export on a paid plan.

Start with a study guide, a slide deck or your own notes on a theme, such as world capitals, science basics or a unit from class. The generator writes questions with the correct answer and a one-sentence explanation, so the answer key is ready when the round starts.

Review each question before the quiz night. You can remove anything too obscure and keep the rounds balanced between easy and hard items.
