Hey jason limmm 👋

You'll want to make sure to use the this keyword when accessing the isTurn property 🙂

const player1 = {
    name: 'Ashley',
    color: 'purple',
    isTurn: true,
    play: function(){
        if(this.isTurn===true){};
    }
}

After that adjustment your code should pass the challenge as expected.
