It doesn't look like you've started yet. But here's a few hints:

  • the code given breaks out "player" for you, do the same with "direction"
  • check the result of adding the directions to the player positions, is it still on the map?
  • if either coordinate is off, reduce the hp and return the original coordinates with it
  • but if the move is good, return the new coordinates and the same hp

For some examples of solution structure, you might try looking at the other questions about this same challenge. But don't just copy anything verbatim, you'll likely be looking at code other folks are having trouble with!
