TimovieMan I think it’s clear to say that you’ve single handedly ruined a number of our childhoods

Meh.
Back in the day before the internet was widespread, there was a program that you could get with a monthly magazine, which held lots of cheats and hints for a wide variety of games (don’t ask, I forgot the name).
Within that program, you could find the first Larry game, and its cheat was: “Press Alt+X to bypass the age-questions… oh heck, EVERYBODY knows this!”.

Given that I knew it before I read it there just made me figure it was common knowledge. Like “spoiling” Empire Strikes Back nowadays by saying Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker’s father. You’re not spoiling anything if everybody already knows it…

Btw, didn’t you guys ever try any key-combinations in old games? You could often accidentally bump into something cool (or bypass something annoying) with an Alt+X or a Ctrl+X or one of the F-keys…
Randomly trying some of these key-combinations was common practice back then… at least for me…

i found this at Ken Blog with all the copyrights protections represented at Sierra’s Games

but there are some missing link Manhunter , Larry3

I actually found LSL1’s “intro-quiz” so be quite amuzing, and by age 9 I knew all the answers by heart^^. I didn’t learn about the alt-x trick until several years later though.
