When I was a kid I wrote my own text parser in basic. If he really wants to build his own to teach himself the language and not just to, you know, make games, there are worse ways to go.

Then again, most actual developers don't work from scratch; they use whatever libraries exist. Someone just made a text adventurish library for Unity; this may be helpful to him.

Point him to the interactive fiction community forums for all his interactive-fiction-related needs.
