How to build a video game quiz from your own material
Teachers and gamers often want a video game quiz built from clips they have watched, but DeckOwl reads text and images, not video. Paste a transcript, lecture notes or slides, and the quiz builder writes questions with explanations for each answer.
- Works from notes, slides, PDFs and photos of pages
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer formats
- Explanations show why each answer is right or wrong
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month to try it
Three question types
Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of why the answer is correct.
Reads your material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Text recognition reads images of handouts and screenshots of on-screen text.
Study in the browser or export
Take the quiz online on the free plan. PDF and DOCX export come with Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export come with Pro.
How it works
Add your source
Upload a PDF, slides, a document or paste a transcript. Photos of printed pages work too.
Choose question types
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, or mix them in one quiz.
Review and take the quiz
Check each question and explanation, then study in the browser or export if your plan includes it.
Start with the facts you want tested, such as release dates, genre terms or game mechanics, and keep each question focused on one of them. Review the generated questions before a session so the quiz matches what was taught.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write good multiple-choice questions for a video game quiz?
Write one clearly correct answer and three plausible distractors, such as a different console or year from the same era. Keep each question to a single fact so a player can tell exactly what is being tested.
How many questions should a video game quiz cover in one session?
Ten to fifteen questions is a practical range for one sitting, since it covers several topics without becoming a long test. Split larger units into several short quizzes so review stays focused.
Can I export my quiz to PDF or Moodle?
PDF and DOCX export are on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro at $14.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.
