I've had one where I had a choice of sending one of my villagers to swim with the sharks or not bother. I had him go swimming with them and suddenly became popular with all the ladies.

I had the barrel approach the island with the kids also.

I had the Biggles one.

I had a crate where I had to choose either to open it or bring it to the scientists. I brought it to the scientists and wound up with extra tech points.
