I see you've never played "Dragon's Lair", where every scene was cell animated and the player "chose" the path that the animation would take.

LOL, I've actually heard of it, but I have not played it. Ofc that game never even crossed my mind when writing my comment haha. I suppose choose your own adventure style books also fall into this category.
