Bummer: Nothing was returned from the play method

I'm doing a code challenge I don't know what's wrong here. I copied and pasted it onto Chrome Dev Tools and it returned: "Ashley is now playing!"

Code:

const player1 = {
    name: 'Ashley',
    color: 'purple',
    isTurn: true,
    play: function(){
        if ( this.isTurn === true ) {
          console.log(this['name'] + ' is now playing!');
        }
    }
}

player1['play']();

Hi,
Try to do it like this way

const player1 = {
    name: 'Ashley',
    color: 'purple',
    isTurn: true,
    play: function(){
      if(this.isTurn) return `${this['name']} is now playing!`
    }
}
