Branching Scenario quiz with interactive conversation/dialogue. Is this possible?

Question

Here is a branching scenario that I have been tasked with building out in Captivate. I haven't been able to find any instruction on how to create a quiz in this flowchart style, where the user chooses a response and that choice dictates where they go next in the dialogue/quiz. Is something like this even possible?

I found these examples that I believe were created using Storyline. So it seems that the concept has been done before. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to achieve this in Captivate?

Thanks in advance!

Any eLearning authoring tool can do this, if you know the tool. Sorry, but the screenshot of the flowchart is too small to read to give proper instructions.

Something very important is missing in your question: do you need to transfer the results to the gradebook of a LMS or not? This looks more like scenario-based learning, not like a real quiz where you need to transfer the score to a LMS.

There are many ways to set this up. I would create custom master slides to start with, either based on the default quiz slide (MCQ) or as a start for custom question slides. The last type gives you more control but take more work.

For the branching you can use:

In case of quiz master slide based question, the Success or Last Attempt event.
For custom question slides: use shapes as text container and convert them to interactive objects. You can use its Success event to trigger the actions.

You can assign advanced or shared actions. In this use case I would personally prefer shared actions, because they allow reusing with different parameters.
