About the game

A free browser game about running an honest appliance repair business, from one van in a driveway to a name people know across the Valley.

Arizona Appliance: Repair Empire is a management game. You diagnose faults, price the work, order the parts and live with what you charged people. It runs entirely in your browser — nothing to install, no account, and your progress is saved on your own device.

Why it exists

Arizona Appliance Repairs is a real Arizona appliance repair directory, publishing repair cost guides, model-specific fault guides and DIY walkthroughs. The game is built on the same idea the guides run on: diagnose it properly, quote it straight, and stand behind the work. It's a game about those trade-offs being genuinely difficult — the cheap part really is cheaper, and it really does come back.

What's actually real in it

• The machines. Every washer, dryer, refrigerator, range and dishwasher is a real brand and model from the Arizona Appliance Repairs model guides.
• The faults. Error codes, failure patterns and repair costs mirror the documented failure history of each platform — the same content the repair guides publish.
• The service campaigns. Warranty jobs are based on real, well-documented manufacturer campaigns and recalls.
• The certifications. Nine exam tracks — refrigeration, laundry, cooking, gas safety, EPA 608 refrigerant handling and more — with a 75% pass mark.
• The competition. Rival shops are real businesses from the Arizona Appliance Repairs directory, listed with their real public ratings.
