Editing Twenty questions (section)

=== Hungary ===
In Hungary, the game is known as {{lang|hu|Barkochba}}, named after [[Simon bar Kokhba]], the leader of the second-century Jewish uprising against the Romans. The story goes that the Romans cut out a spy's tongue, so when he reached bar Kokhba's camp, he was only able to nod or shake his head to answer bar Kokhba's questions. The number of questions is not limited to twenty.

{{lang|hu|Barkochba}} was played by Frigyes Karinthy and his company in Budapest back in 1911. So the game started in Hungary from the New York café in Budapest.

{{lang|hu|Barkochba}} was staged as a television game show {{lang|hu|Kicsoda-Micsoda?}} (later renamed {{lang|hu|Van Benne Valami}}) on the Hungarian national television [[Magyar Televízió]] from 1975 to 1991. It was the first show presented by [[István Vágó]], who would later host the Hungarian versions of ''[[Jeopardy!]]'' ({{lang|hu|Mindent vagy semmit!}}) and ''[[Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?]]'' ({{lang|hu|Legyen Ön is milliomos!}}).
