Model Zero

Industrial AI Architecture Workshop Kit

Everyone is talking about AI in industrial operations. Very few people agree on how to actually build it.

Model Zero is a workshop kit for technical teams and architects designing industrial AI systems: edge inference, OT/IT integration, data pipelines, model governance. Players work through real architecture decisions, surface the trade-offs, and build shared understanding of what it actually takes to get AI running reliably on the shop floor.

Not theory. Architecture decisions, made together, under realistic constraints.

How to play

One turn, start to finish.

  1. Map

    Place a System Component card on the architecture board.

  2. Challenge

    Draw a Failure Mode card for that component.

  3. Mitigate

    Play a Design Decision card to address it.

  4. Validate

    Score for coverage and alignment.

  • Design an industrial AI architecture from the ground up

  • Resolve OT/IT integration trade-offs as a team

  • Build shared understanding of what production AI requires

How facilitators use it

Open a session

Start the first round without a briefing. Hand out cards, explain the objective in 60 seconds, and let people learn the mechanics by playing. The moment it clicks in round two is worth more than ten minutes of explanation.

Drive the debrief

Ask one open question and let the room run with it. Players reference their own moves, so the discussion is already in front of you. Shared language and shared experience do the rest.

Pair with a guide

Run it standalone, or pair it with the structured facilitation guide included in the box. The guide adds pre session framing, timed facilitation notes, and a full debrief script.

These are professional workshop tools, not party games. Each one is built around real industry knowledge and designed for organizations, and the price reflects that. See current pricing on The Game Crafter.

Every SpielLogic game runs standalone or pairs with a structured facilitation guide you can run yourself.
