Ahahaha. This step amused me quite a bit.
Thanks for the steps, cybertrini!
Heh. Me too!
Is it just me, or is the little cybunny straight out of Monty Python & the Holy Grail?
"Follow. But. Follow only if ye be men of valour, for the entrance to this cave is guarded by a creature so foul, so cruel that no man yet has fought with it and lived. Bones of full fifty men lie strewn about its lair. So, brave knights, if you do doubt your courage or your strength, come no further, for death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth ... "There he is!"
"Where?"
"There!"
"What, behind the rabbit?"
"It is the rabbit!"
"[Hey]! You got us all worked up!"
"Well, that's no ordinary rabbit. That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on."
This was a lot of fun. I definitely deliberately got all the wrong answers because it was so fun to read. I'm posting them here behind spoilers so that others can read the captions without taking all that time. I believe each step only has one wrong answer picture as well (even when that makes no sense, such as you falling into a pit when your stated action is asking the villain to stop). (In each case the last answer is correct)
I also just have to say I love the correct answer to step 5!
Step 1
Use convenient teleporter: You spy a teleportation chamber on the edge of the room, and step into it... How convenient! You've been teleported into the Horrible Black Void. ... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Cross invisible bridge: You hold your breath, close your eyes, and step into the abyss... ...which really is an abyss. An invisible bridge? Really?
Ask Yurius to wait: You shout, "Hey, hold on a second!" Vainly hoping for Yurius to respond, you find that, in fact, he doesn't.
Fill the pit with cheese: Where are you going to get 5,000 litres of cheese? It turns out Mick has a device that does exactly that! The cheese fills up the pit, and you can swim across.
Step 2
Toast marshmallows: Perhaps you can turn lemons into lemonade by using the flames to toast some marshmallows? Incensed by your attempt to make use of their flames for culinary purposes, the heads redouble their flamethrowing and send you packing.
Brandish a carrot threateningly: You wield a pointed carrot at the stone heads... While carrots are chock full of vitamins and other nutrients, stone heads find them neither threatening nor tasty.
Put on swimsuits: Conveniently, you thought to bring swimwear with you, in case there was time to visit the beach while on Mystery Island... ...but the stone heads, angry that they cannot visit the beach, refuse to let you pass.
Hurl insults at the stone heads: You sling a variety of choice epithets at the stone heads, perhaps hoping to intimidate them into stopping their flaming breath... It works! The stone heads, surprised by the vitriol of your barbs, stop shooting flames long enough for you to pass. I hope you're proud of yourself.
Step 3
Stare off into space You stare off into space, maybe hoping that inaction will save the day... ...but not so much.
Use flamethrower Now where are you going to get a flamethrower at a time like this? I mean really! How would a flamethrower even stop a giant boulder?
Throw bacon You hurl three pounds of precooked bacon at the boulder.. The boulder ignores the delicious bacon.
Dance a jig You dance a festive jig. How invigorating! But how will this help? While dancing, you accidentally step on a hidden plate, and a giant stone hammer knocks the boulder aside!
Step 4
Play dice You, quite literally, roll the dice to see if that somehow will stop the pistons... Trying to retrieve dice from beneath giant slamming stone pistons is not a wise course of action.
Mutter something about interest rates Perhaps mathematics will provide the answer to making your way through! There might be a correspondence between interest rates and the movement of the pistons! Okay, that was a longshot, even for this puzzle.
Wait for the pistons to get bored Perhaps the pistons will simply give up if you wait long enough? It turns out that you got bored before the non-sentient stone pistons, and tried to run through anyway. Suffice to say, it didn't work.
Jam a toothpick into the mechanism Finding a toothpick in your pack, you attempt to jam the mechanism driving the pistons... ...however, the mechanism was in fact a Xweetok named Phil, who now has a toothpick stuck in his eye. Good job. On the bright side, he's turned off the pistons so that you don't jab him in the eye again.
Step 5
Ask, "If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?" You propose the philosophical question to the Cybunny... RESPONSE: A BINARY TREE. ENTERING ATTACK MODE.
Bribe it with Neocash You sidle over to the Cybunny and try to surreptitiously hand it 500 Neocash. ERROR: CYBUNNY DOES NOT ACCEPT NEOCASH AS A FORM OF BRIBERY. ENTERING ATTACK MODE.
Request an autograph You shyly approach the Cybunny and offer an 8x10 headshot and a pen... ERROR: CYBUNNY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE CONCEPT OF CELEBRITY. ENTERING ATTACK MODE.
Become inexplicably hostile You start screaming and thumping your chest, making hostile hand gestures at the Cybunny. The Cybunny sees you become angry, and suddenly it looks sad. It holds up a mirror to itself, and mutters, "ERROR: WHAT HAVE I BECOME?" as you slip past.

This mini plot was, for me personally, just not that fun... up until Mission 4. That was just too funny. Hopefully it keeps going on the upward for the next two missions.
This was absolutely my favourite plot step (so far) On the first obstacle I remember clicking the invisible bridge option first because I thought, "Hey, it worked for Indiana Jones" xD

Heh, I was just coming here to post that. Some of 'em are a bit tricky if you try and figure 'em out straight. Kinda cool that they did some riddles this time, though!
