Draft for a proper page if there's enough interest

Introduction

Fidget cubes are ...?

Features

All cubes have these common features that can be found on the sides of the device:

  • Joystick
  • Rocker switch
  • 5 buttons, some are clicky and some silent
  • Spinning disk
  • 3 rollers/gears & rotating shiny ball
  • Oval shaped indent (does nothing)

Exact implementations of these features can vary. For example, some cubes do have rubberized buttons, some cubes allow you to press/click the shiny ball.

The body of the cube measures approx. 3cm on each side (not including sticking out parts and things).
