There may be a better way, but I have three ideas for you:

1. Use the <<radiobutton>> macro. http://www.motoslave.net/sugarcube/2/docs/macros.html#macros-radiobutton

2. Use a combination of <<click>>, <<replace>>, and <<link>> or Passage links.

Here's how the second option might look:

You have three doors to choose from.  Pick carefully.

<<click "Choose A Door">><<replace "#doorChoices">>[[Door 1]]
[[Door 2]]
[[Door 3]]<</replace>><</click>>
<span id="doorChoices"></span>

3. Use a variable to store the choice so it can be picked back up in a later passage.

You have three doors to choose from.  Pick carefully.

<<click "Door 1">><<set $doorChoice to 1>><</click>>
<<click "Door 2">><<set $doorChoice to 2>><</click>>
<<click "Door 3">><<set $doorChoice to 3>><</click>>

Later on, use <<if $doorChoice is 1>> to determine results based on their decision.

Howdy, Stranger!
