About SIQ files
The .SIQ file format is a custom question pack used by SIGame, a popular desktop trivia quiz simulator. These files store quiz categories, text questions, answers, and multimedia elements like audio, video, and images. The primary tool used to create and edit these files is SIQuester.
The main disadvantage of the .SIQ format is its highly specialized nature. You cannot open it natively in a web browser, a standard document reader, or a media player. It requires the specific SIGame software to play or edit. Users often need to convert this file to extract the underlying media files or text questions to use them in other applications, study guides, or different trivia engines.
Under the hood, a .SIQ file is simply a renamed ZIP archive. The best target formats for conversion are standard extracted files. By renaming the extension to ZIP and extracting the contents, you will find an XML file containing the text data (questions and answers) alongside standard media files like JPG, MP3, and MP4.
Because it is a specific game asset, standard online document converters fail to process it. Usually, only the original software can properly read or export the structured data. Since our analysis detects the underlying ZIP container format, viewing the internal content and extracting the embedded files is often possible directly from your browser.
Convert.Guru analyzes your SIQ file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The SIQ Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our SIQ converter.
