        // Enter your code below
        switch directection -> Point {
            case Direction.Left: return x - 1

Ok first you spelt direction wrong in the switch statement. You don't need to put a return section into your switch statement, if it needed one which it doesn't that would go in the func. Also use -= or +=

switch direction {
            case .Left: location.x -= 1
            case .Right: location.x += 1
            case .Up: location.y += 1
            case .Down: location.y -= 1
        }
