I would use a switch, it works very well for making state-based
decisions... and a game like this is basically a state-machine.
I would also look around and see what has been done before, you should
be able to find source code for text-based adventure games all over
the place (Hunt the Wumpus?), to get a basic idea of the design for
something like this.
