Now if you don't mind paying a bit, TyranoBuilder is a plug and play type engine that you can build games on without much programming. There's also Visual Novel Maker, though I don't really know if VNM is better than Tyrano. The kinda plus side of VNM is that it comes with some pre-packaged assets. Source: over 2 years ago

Alternatively, if you'd rather do little/no coding, you could try TyranoBuilder, it's like $15 and it's super straightforward to use. There's also Visual Novel Maker which is a more feature-packed engine, and supports javascript for custom features. Source: almost 3 years ago
