Why build your pub quiz from your own material

Most ready-made quizzes are generic, so a Zurich pub quiz works better when the questions come from local facts you choose yourself. Start with a PDF, slide deck or notes on the city's history, landmarks and culture, and DeckOwl writes questions from that text, each with an explanation the host can read aloud once the answer is revealed.

  • Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions in one set
  • Explanations for every answer, ready to read aloud
  • Works from PDFs, slides, DOCX files and photos of notes
  • Free plan includes 3 generations a month

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Most rounds run 8 to 12 questions so teams can answer between rounds without losing focus. Start the round with an easy question and close it with a harder one to keep the room engaged.

What kinds of Zurich trivia work well for a pub quiz?

Landmarks, history, local food and public transport tend to work well because most teams have some familiarity with them. Avoid questions that hinge on one obscure date, since they often split the room.

Can I export my quiz to print or use in Moodle?

PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on Pro at $14.99/month.
