I don't know if anyone here is familiar with the Yogscast but I've never seen them do anything like this before, it's brilliant!

Fixed your youtube link.

I always liked choose your own adventure books, especially the complicated ones with combat and items and stuff.

I am the one who knocks...

@Van B: I was also a fan of Choose Your Own Adventure. Have you ever played a "Visual Novel". It's like a CYOA book only it's accompanied by images. Some have voice acting but most don't since I'd say the majority are indie devs.

Deathtrap Dungeon is the one that instantly springs to mind. That was always my favourite one of these books.

Or if you want to really geek it up there's these solo rpg adventures which use a reduced version of the Pathfinder RPG rules to create a solo experience. I've played the Party of One adventures on this page which can be read in about 20 minutes. For $3 they're not too bad and each one had multiple endings, they're just like a choose your own adventure/fighting fantasy books, with dice rolling for combat etc.
