Hi Brian, you're not too far off, the problem is that you are calling the play function. The challenge is asking you to add an empty method to the player1 object literal. So what you need to do is add a method (i.e. function) called play inside the player1 object.

Ok so it would be something like this??

const player = { name : ‘ally’, color : ‘white’, isTurn : true, play : function(){

} }

So that didn’t work either and treehouse keeps having me reload the challenge.. I don’t know what’s going on :-/
