Sample question themes
Strong office parties quizzes share a few patterns. The themes that consistently land:
- · Whose desk is the messiest — guess from the photo
- · Match the coworker to their coffee order
- · What year did each department form?
- · Guess the coworker from their childhood photo
- · Which team has won the most office trivia nights?
- · Fill in the blank from this year's all-hands memo
How to build your quiz in 10 minutes
- 1. Pick a focus. “How well do you know the [person]” vs. trivia round vs. themed memory game. One focus per quiz; don't mix.
- 2. Draft questions. Use the themes above as a starting point. Add 2-3 unique ones specific to your event.
- 3. Write distractors. For each multiple-choice item, write 3 plausible wrong answers. The wrong answers determine the fun.
- 4. Test on someone outside the event. If they can't follow the questions, your guests won't either.
- 5. Share the link. Drop in the event chat, text it to guests, or display a QR code at the venue.
Common pitfalls
- · Questions that single out one coworker unflatteringly.
- · Politics, religion, or salary — keep it strictly social.
- · Department-vs-department scoring that gets too competitive. Keep stakes low.
- · Excluding remote or newer employees who missed the inside jokes.
Live or at their own pace
Live: a host reads each question aloud or shows it on a screen, guests answer on their phones, and the host reveals the answer before moving on.
At their own pace: share the link in the group chat or on a QR code; guests take the quiz whenever they like during the event, and you read out the results at the end.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many questions should an office party quiz have?▾
10-15 questions is enough for a coworker-trivia or department-vs-department round to build momentum without eating too far into the party.
What are good office party quiz question ideas?▾
Guess-the-messiest-desk, matching coworkers to their coffee order, and a childhood-photo round are lighthearted starting points. A fill-in-the-blank from this year’s all-hands memo also works if the group shares that context.
How do coworkers in different offices or remote join in?▾
Everyone gets the same shareable link, so an in-office team and remote coworkers can all play from their own device at the same time — no login required to take the quiz.
What should I avoid when writing an office party quiz?▾
Don’t single out one coworker unflatteringly, and keep politics, religion, and salary off the table entirely. If you run department-vs-department scoring, keep it low-stakes, and make sure remote or newer employees aren’t left out by inside jokes.
