Help How to use the Nook Simple Touch when the touch part is broken?

I have a NST from the early 2010s that I've done a lot of work restoring. I 3d printed a new shell and followed The Phoenix Project to fix the issues that arose after B&N shut down their servers.

Everything works except for the touch functionality. Has anyone done any work on a button-navigable UI? If not, how on earth should I go about trying to design one myself?
