Check out these three topics that I and another user, xSai, made, if you’re interested in text-based IF’s (Interactive Fiction) made with Twine or some other engine:
Twine games with character customization - Part 1
Twine games with character customization - Part 2
Twine games with character customization - Part 3
We also have a discord server, a subreddit, a tumblr blog, and a cohost page for this where you can talk about interactive fiction and recommend IF’s:
