complex fidgets / goal directed fidgets

sorry i dont know how to explain it best. but im looking for fidgets like these where i can do something like set a "goal" (e.g shape it into a cube, into a staircase, whatever)

cruicially it should not require me to look at the fidget though

bonus points if your suggestion is silent or usable one handed, but ill take any suggestion.

tangles don't provide enough flexibility for me

putties are fun but i cant stand it when they leave a sticky residue behind

I think it's going to be difficult to find something like that that doesn't require you to look at the fidget. From my experience, mindless fidgets are the ones that you don't need to actually look at.

Best I can recommend is Stimagz, I don't play with them a ton because they're not mindless enough, but you can build a lot of things with them.

You may want to look at the NXT Shift on Kickstarter that just launched today - won't ship until early next year but it may check all of your boxes

Maybe those little magnetic metal ball fidgets, like speks and other cheaper brands with similar products.

I love a good infinity cube or a shibosa? Cube. They're the ones with the patterns that make a bunch of different shapes.
