[*Man turning over a tactile Rubik’s cube in his hand while explaining its features..*]

[*Pleasant, informative, enthusiastic voice.*] So check this out! It’s a tactile cube right? It’s got different shapes and sort of things that you can feel on each side of the cube, and those represent the actual colors that would be on the side of a Rubik’s cube.

So for that we got the raised lines on this side [*shows blue surface with raised lines*], we got hollow squares back here [*shows red surface with square outlines*], hollow circles over here [*shows white surface with circle outlines*]. Ahh these are arrows that are, just pointing that way [*shows yellow surface with triangle outlines*] and straight lines and more!

So now even I can do the Rubik’s cube! [*laughs*].

Yeah there is a an official tactile Rubix cube that is plastic and very sturdy. solid and nothing stuck to the faces so the raised bits won't come off. I'll post a link later when I find it. It is awesome and only like fifteen bucks.

That is actually an interesting and creative idea there.

Even with some vision I never came close to solving a rubiks cube.

I also got another one of rubiks' products where basically the whole thing folded in different directions and I somehow broke it where it wouldn't bend or turn anymore. lol.
