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".

That verification really did put a hurdle in front of kids back in the pre-internet era.

...and adults outside USA who don't know shit about baseball trivia or comedians famous in West Wisconsin City.
