This reminds me of the 18th century
chess playing machine.  It is a box
with a mystic looking mechanical man on top
with a chessboard.
It could beet almost anybody at chess at the time.
Of course recently someone showed how
a person could sit inside the box below the mystic
and work levers to move the peices.

I don't guess this is what you had in mind.
