Why would we be ashamed of that? The early Leisure Suit Larry games are a lot of fun; yeah the humor is crass and low-brow, but that's sort of the charm. It's meant to be silly.

That's because you were probably the right age to know the answers to the age control questions, and I was at an age where I could only download them from a BBS.

I actually didn't play the game until I was fifteen, in ~2006. I didn't know the answers, but I found out you can just hit ctrl-alt-x and skip the questions.

Take a look at how it was in 1995. InterAction (Sierra Online) magazine [PDF copy]. Article about the Larry 6 release on page 50.

I wish I had known that! Guessing and trying the answers worked too, given no internet and only having a faint idea that "age control" was not in fact part of the game itself. I learned that Bonnie and Ronnie was not in fact a thing. What is "Bonnie & Clyde"? Eh, probably some band name was my guess. It took some patience, but since it was one of 3 games I had somehow acquired (how exactly is a lost memory), I had to get past the starting quiz.

Since I also barely spoke English at the time, I got stuck in the game itself pretty soon anyway. Didn't manage to figure out how to say some things the right way. "Ken sent me" is the last thing I remember from it... and I never had any idea that the game was rather dirty until much later.
