How to build your trivia quiz

  1. Open the quiz builder and paste your topic or category.
  2. Pick the number of questions and difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard, Expert).
  3. Choose round format: rapid-fire, mixed difficulty, or escalating difficulty.
  4. Review every question. Edit, swap, or regenerate any individual question.
  5. Share the link with your team or print the quiz for in-person nights.

Trivia formats we support

Hosting tips

  • Mix difficulties within a round. Easy questions reward casual players; hard questions reward serious ones.
  • Cap each round at 10 questions. Longer rounds drag energy down.
  • Read each answer aloud after the round, even on a digital quiz. The moment of revelation is half the fun.
  • Stagger themes across rounds — don't do 6 rounds of music.
