Add an empty method to the object literal called play().

Hmm not sure what to do here. I tired play : function(){}; was a no go.

object.js 
const player1 = {
  name : "Niki",
  color : "Red",
  isTurn : true
}

Hi Franklyn, i don't think you need to end the method with a semi-colon so i would remove it, also i would make sure the line before it has a comma at the end :)

Hi Franklyn, Grace is rigth, adding the semicolon at the end of the function will result in a syntax error. Just remove like so:

const player1 = { name : "Niki", color : "Red", isTurn : true, play: function(){} }
