Funny story I was once on the other side of this! I was asking people to code a game of blackjack, and the third candidate had never played the game. For that interview I just stopped and changed the premise, but before that I hadn't really thought about how culturally specific some of my questions and puzzles were.
I'm so glad I don't have to participate in interviews like that anymore!
