Twine

Find ways to tell those stories without complex mechanics. Visual novels and text adventures are a great example. If you have a budget, hire a good artist and maybe look into voice over actors. If you're short on budget, look into AI to generate images and even to do voice over. As for tools you have Twine, Ink and YarnSpinner, to name s few and, in terms of game engine, don't lose too much time picking one. Whether is Unity, Unreal, GameMaker, Phaser, Pygame or just HTML with vanilla JS, go with whatever makes you feel comfortable and requires the lowest amount of effort for you to start doing something.
