Want to add parenthesis between Publisher. Is this correct? return Title + "(" + Publisher + ")"; ... Check Work fails

I keep getting an error that tells me to make sure Publish is enclosed with parenthesis. I did it as the following

return Title + "(" + Publisher + ")";

I don't know where I went wrong. Please correct me.

VideoGame.cs 
namespace Treehouse.Models
{
    public class VideoGame
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Title { get; set; }
        public string Description { get; set; }
        public string[] Characters { get; set; }
        public string Publisher { get; set; }

        public string DisplayText
        {
            get
            {
                return Title + "(" + Publisher + ")";
            }
        }
    }
}

You're very close!

The challenge wants to see a space between the title and the open parenthesis, just include one in the string:

                return Title + " (" + Publisher + ")";
