Hey there Francesco,

for this challenge you have to use the increment operator ++ which adds one to initialScore. Note that you have to write the increment operator before the variable in this case so it increments the value of initialScore before it returns it.

Like so:

// Enter your code below

var initialScore = 8
let totalScore = ++initialScore

I hope that helps, if you have further questions just ask! :)
