To compare "real" interactive fiction (IF) with the "choose your own adventure" type books is like comparing a toy car with a Formula 1 Grand Prix car
So, it's like a MUD - without the other users? Or, the game Josh in the movie Big is playing - without the graphics?

I think the possibility for either a "simple" (I like them) choose your own adventure - is definitely there (some online comics do it, and should be easy enough to convert. A more sophisticated "MUD" style, single player experience doubtful at this juncture (would need to be a self-contained app able to understand the commands it was receiving).
