The instructions ask you to "create a class named Player that has those same three attributes, last_name, first_name, and score.". But they could have been a bit more explicit about how they will be set. It turns out the challenge will pass them in as keyword arguments.
So, you can do this using a bit of standard Python boilerplate code (which is totally unrelated to regular expressions!):
class Player:
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
for key, value in kwargs.items():
setattr(self, key, value)
