8,299 PointsHey man, you've almost done it but you've missed one crucial thing!
script.js
var player = {
name: 'rov',
color: 'blue',
score: '1' // notice the quotation marks? that turns it into a string
};
/* Instead try: */
var player = {
name: 'rov',
color: 'blue',
score: 1;
};

Courses Plus Student 12,565 PointsTry removing the '' around the 1 to make it a number, the brackets make it a string.
var player = { name: 'rov', color: 'blue', score: 1 };
