No.  There's dozens, possibly hundreds of different books and series that use 
that very general type of format.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am thinking of creating a Choose Your Own Adventure game, with numbered 
sections where the reader can choose where to go or who to fight. I want to 
know if this narrative style(numbered section and goto decisions) is 
copyrighted. I am planing to use my own fighting styles and rules, not copied 
from gamebooks like Lone Wolf.
Any ideas?
Thanks
