Your close, but when assigning value to a constant (or a variable) you only use = so since you are assigning value to isWinner you wouldn't use != instead you want to do

let isWinner = totalScore != 10

because you are a winner if the score is not equal to 10. So anything but ten will make isWinner true

Funny thing. I asked the question, went to the bathroom, and while in the bathroom I figured it out in my head. I GOT IT BEFORE YOU TOLD ME! VICTORY!
