Creo from Creolabs seems quite accessible, but isn‘t that simple either.

It comes with a player though - you can create the app and play it back on your device without having to register it through the app store or Google Play.

Same for free C#-based Xamarin, but this is based on Visual Studio.

LiveCode comes to my mind as well which is close to HyperCard/Flash, but needs programming for any interactivity...

How about an iBook if this is for Apple? IBook Author is free and allows for interactive elements like quizzes and embedded HTML pages. Pretty nifty, free, but only for iOS again.
