game_str.py

I don't see what I'm missing here.

game_str.py 
from game import Game

class GameScore(Game):
    pass

    def __str__(self):
        return "Player 1: {}; Player 2: {}".format(self.score.self.score)

You can get rid of the pass for part 2. You accidentally used a period instead of a comma for your arguments inside format(). You will also need to either use an asterisk like I did or use self.score[0] and self.score[1] to correctly unpack the contents of self.score which is a list. Hope this helps.

from game import Game

class GameScore(Game):
    def __str__(self):
        return "Player 1: {}; Player 2: {}".format(*self.score)
