Trivia quiz template
Science, art, history and language in one short round, so no single specialist runs away with it. Every right answer is worth a point, the botanical fruit question takes one away for a wrong pick, and a closest-guess tiebreaker settles a draw without a replay.

Questions to consider
- Is this for a pub night, a team social or a classroom? A mixed crowd needs questions from several subjects so nobody dominates.
- Should a wrong pick in the fruit question cost a point, or would that feel harsh for your players?
- Will teams play together on one phone, or will everyone answer on their own device?
- Do you need the tiebreaker at all, or is a shared win fine for your group?
How to use the responses
Sort the responses by score to find the winner, then use the tiebreaker to settle any draw: the guess closest to 88 takes it. Look at which question most people got wrong before your next quiz. If nearly everyone missed it, keep it as a showstopper; if the wording confused people, rewrite it.
How to customize and share it
- 1Swap in questions on your own theme, keeping one point on each correct option and a minus point on wrong picks in any pick-all question.
- 2Move the score bands if you change the number of questions, so the champion result still needs nearly every answer right.
- 3Share the link on screen or in your group chat, and read the scoreboard in the dashboard when the round closes.
Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a trivia quiz have?
For a single round played on phones, eight to twelve questions keeps it quick. A full quiz night usually runs several rounds of that size with a break between them.
How do I handle a tie in a trivia quiz?
Use a closest-guess number question that is not scored. This template asks how many keys a piano has, and the nearest guess to 88 wins.
What makes a good trivia question?
One clear right answer, wrong options that sound plausible, and a fact people enjoy learning even when they miss it.
Can teams play this trivia quiz together?
Yes. Ask for a team name on the first question and have one person answer for the table.
