        “Peter piper picked pickled peppers” seems weird to me as an age verification, but maybe that’s because the game is old?

        Was this actually an age gate, or was it a form of copy protection where the answers are in the printed manual?

      It was an old ‘kings quest’ style adventure game featuring ‘adult’ content, though I don’t think it was much past PG-13 really. You had to answer a series of trivia questions to play that were supposed to be things only an adult would probably know. I remember some questions like “What is Havarti: Cheese, A Country, Species of Fish”.
