When you say text-based, what exactly do you mean? Twine is good for a lot of Choose-Your-Own-Adventure or Fighting Fantasy-style games, but if you're looking for a "GET LAMP" kind of text adventure, I think Inform would be your best bet.

I've been planning to write another To Change adventure like I did last year! (Assuming, of course, that I don't change gears while brainstorming tonight...)

Or if you're looking for complications, mirroring or rotating the D-pad could add a fumbly element to it. (I think some barbershop quartet-style music would add to the proceedings as well.)

HA! Thank you for the hint!

I know this is a demo, but it's already more complete than most full games! I'm really impressed by the sheer breadth of possible play styles for Dorothy, and the interactions between the characters are a joy to see.

About the secret boss in Shallas Grove - I haven't found any attacks that are able to damage it. What can I use to fight it? (Or am I missing the point by asking?)

In His Castle on the Hill: Or, “Tonight, Lord Harn Dies!” is a dark fantasy-themed dungeon starter for the rules-light Dungeon World roleplaying game. It's intended as a jumping-off point for starting your very own tabletop RPG campaign!
