It might need re-wording, as it wasn't meant to come across as a thing similar to carding when purchasing alcohol

I know that for the Composer app - where this was spotted earlier - the original ToC screen simply asked to acknowledge you're 16+ or have permission from a parent/guardian sort of thing. The update that added the specific age request removed the aforementioned language. Functionality remains the same.

BBB had this to say about it in a facebook reply:

"My Singing Monsters now requests your age in order to comply with new regulations from the Google Play Store. Aspects of the game, such as the advertisements shown to the player, may vary based on your age in order to protect younger audiences. We recommend entering the age of the youngest player in order to ensure that they have an age-appropriate experience."

So this may additionally be an Android-only thing. I can't say I've seen any other games I play suddenly ask for my age.
