The more I think about it, the more sense it makes. We already have things like destroyable walls (and bombs to destroy them). We have gather points to replicate loot (just make it a single gather and a 100% chance of getting a certain item), and we've got a lot of small mobs to act as the canon fodder (or we could even have some weaker large monsters roaming about). All we'd really need to add would be things like traps and locks/keys. It wouldn't take much effort.
