As a kid, me and a friend bought the game "Leisure Suit Larry" or one of the sequels. It included an age check because of adult content. After asking our age, which we dutifully entered as 19, it would ask questions that only an adult would know, like "who was the US president in 1962?" We would research these questions in my friend's encyclopedia to play the game.
Now, I have all this trivia knowledge in my head due to my childhood quest to see highly pixelated cartoon boobies in 640x480 resolution.
To think there was a time when Amerikkkan adults actually knew some History, that the developers could trust to use as an age check! Quite the surprise, I imagine in part it was thanks to Carmen Sandiego.
Everyone wins!
