Building on everything learned from Cubelets, the new Moss kit is more varied and sophisticated, but keeps all the wiring, coding, and other nitty gritty details tucked out of the way. All you need to do is decide how to combine the various magnetically-coupling modules together. Color coding will guide users as to what each side of each module does, with some of them moving your creation around and others, like the distance sensor, giving it some basic awareness.
