You need to state which story format you are using, as answers can be different for each one.

You can use CSS to style the links within a Twine story, the way(s) you would do this depends on which story format you are using. (You may also need to add some HTML)

To add CSS to your story you first need to click on the upward pointing blue triangle in the lower right corner of the Story Editor which will cause a menu to be shown, selecting the Edit Story Stylesheet option will cause the Stylesheet editor to open.

Cut and Paste the following CSS into Stylesheet editor:

.enchantment-link, tw-link {
	-webkit-border-radius: 28;
	-moz-border-radius: 28;
	border-radius: 28px;
	padding: 10px 20px 10px 20px;
	text-decoration: none;	
	background: red;
	color: ivory;
}

.enchantment-link:hover, tw-link:hover {
	color: white;
}

... and now when you add a markup link like the following to your story it should appear as a big red button with white text:

[[Option 1->Passage 1]]

Note: I used the CSS Button Generator to design the basic button.
