SCP 1875 is a Euclid Class anomaly also known as Antique Chess Computer.
SCP-1875 is a Victorian-era chess automaton consisting of four principal components.
These SCP1875 components are A steel chessboard table, A complete set of 32 chess pieces carved in the Oriental style from human bone, A stationary steam engine manufactured by Maudslay, Sons & Field (c. 1840) and A suit of 18th-century Samurai armor in the Gusoku style.
This sophisticated mechanical and biological system controls a matrix of 64 electromagnets using an analytical engine composed of the combined brain tissue of the twin daughters of a Russian chess prodigy.

@joonasrikkonen7355 2 года назад

Theory: The setting sets how lucid the brains are during use. By the 5th setting the brains are fully lucid, hence by that time the brains are just straight up wrecking the pieces and board so they can finally "escape".

@starsnake8176 2 года назад

Thats makes sense, good theory.

@Fridge_Fiend 2 года назад

I thought it was because on the 5th setting the brains are been forced to move faster and don't have enough time to think about their moves as they're forced to make a move in under a second.

@Nicole73737 2 года назад

I'm pretty sure this SCP is based on a real thing that happened, albeit the real thing is less creepy. A guy made a chess playing 'automaton' but it was secretly just a really good chess player on the inside moving the 'robot'

Wait a second, if each fingerbone was carved into a chess piece, then they would need 32 fingers. So where did he get the last 12 from, if the professor never displayed symptoms of having used his own ? Even then, he would still be missing 2 fingers.

For anyone wondering. There were 8 usable bones on each hand. There are 4 hands so 4x8=32 perfect. 3 of the fingers on each hand had 2 usable bones, the 3 in the middle, and other the 2 (thumb and pinkie) only had 1 usable bone each. The other bones would be too small to make pieces out of.

Supposedly even Napoleon played agains't it once, and lost. Well, real story or not, I wonder if it inspired this SCP tale.
