Gotham trivia works because the series gives every famous Batman villain an origin story with its own twists. Questions can cover Gordon's cases at the GCPD, Oswald's climb to King of Gotham and the strange experiments at Indian Hill.

A strong Gotham quiz can include Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock, Bruce Wayne and Alfred, Oswald Cobblepot the Penguin, Edward Nygma and Kristen Kringle, Fish Mooney, Selina Kyle, Barbara Kean and the Sirens nightclub, Carmine Falcone and Sal Maroni, Theo Galavan and the Maniax, the Order of St. Dumas, Hugo Strange and Indian Hill, the Court of Owls, Bruce's double 514A and the ten-years-later finale. It works because fans can trace each villain from their first appearance.
