You should probably add more moves for the King's Indian Defense, as the move order shown could be either a King's Indian or a Gruenfeld depending on black's d-pawn moving to d6 or d5. Also, for the Ruy Lopez the notation needs to be corrected.

I'm a bit late but I suggest you change the notation in the Evan's Gambit of bishop movements. I've never seen anyone use the letter L to notate bishops in modern notation.

It's the Evens Gambit, not Evan's Gambit. It's named after William Evans, not someone called Evan.

Very nice quiz, only one criticism: You should maybe add yellow boxes so that one has to be specific and cannot randomly guess. Oh, and I think Spanish Opening should be accepted for Ruy Lopez as well :)

Yes. Evans, not Evan's.
