Is it possible to create a twine game that does not use a browser?
You could also use Twine as a prototyping tool and export all the story text and such to data that your own custom code works with. Twison to export the data already exists: https://github.com/lazerwalker/twison

Just getting started, I need help with the most basic choice
Twison, an extra story format that exports JSON, but it doesn't mention support for macros of any of the official story formats.

Twine is an open-source tool for telling interactive, nonlinear stories
I did exactly that a while ago combining Twine with Twison [0]. A non technical friend would write the story with Twine, compile to a JSON file, and I'd parse it with a quick script on build time so I could display it on a React web app (that I'd then make apps with, with Cordova). There were a few things that could be improved in the process but it all worked incredibly well after I hooked everything up!

Ask HN: Modern Day Equivalent to HyperCard?
I think you and your kid would have fun designing a Choose Your Own Adventure game in Twine. https://twinery.org/
FWIW, there are a bunch of simple modern GUI builders, including GUI builders for the web, but none of them are popular, due to the sweet spot of supply and demand that Hypercard hit.
When Hypercard launched, it came with every Mac, it was free, and there was nothing else like it available on the Mac. On the Mac, the alternative to Hypercard was to layout UI widgets in code, with no GUI builder at all, or eventually to pay $$$ for a professional-grade IDE like CodeWarrior. As an entry-level user with no budget, if you wanted a GUI builder for the Mac, you got Hypercard, or nothing. This created a community of Hypercard enthusiasts.
Furthermore, when Hypercard launched, Macs had a standard screen resolution. Every Mac sold had a screen resolution of 512x342 pixels, so you could know for sure how your cards would look on any Mac. Supporting resizable GUIs is one of the hardest things to do in any GUI builder. (How should the buttons layout when the screen gets very small, like a phone? Or very wide, like a 16:9 monitor?) Today, Xcode uses a sophisticated constraint solver / theorem prover to allow developers to build resizable UIs in a GUI; it works pretty well, I think, but it's never going to be as easy to learn as "drag the button onto the screen and it's going to look exactly like that everywhere."
The last issue is the real killer for modern Hypercard wannabes: it's a small step from a web GUI builder to raw HTML/CSS. You don't have to pay big bucks to have access to professional-grade HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Sure, they're not that easy to learn, but you can teach a kid to write interactive web pages, no problem.
As a result, the demand for a simple GUI builder is lower than it was for Hypercard, and even when you do capture a user, they tend to outgrow your product, and there are a zillion competitors, so none of them can build a community with real traction.

About Text based games,basically
There's ChoiceScript by Choice Of Games. It's more along the lines of Choose Your Own Adventure. If you're hoping to make something with a fair amount of random events, you might want to check out Twine.

Harlowe 3.3.7 & Tweego
I'm trying to update tweego with the story format harlowe 3.3.7. I've copied the .json and .icon files for Harlowe 3.3.7 from here : https://github.com/klembot/twinejs/tree/develop/public/story-formats

cRPG's often have poor writing. Why is that?
Here are 2 interactive story game engines: * https://www.renpy.org/ * https://twinery.org/

You use something like https://twinery.org/ for creating the dialogues, and then write abstract code to handle that.
