program ends in inteliJ

When I run this code in InteliJ, if I guess the same later twice it throws the IllegalArgumentException as you would expect but it also ends the program all together and I cannot make anymore guess. I have followed along with all the videos and I have no errors, I have double and triple checked my code to make sure. Is this because I am running in InteliJ and not in workspaces or is there another reason this would be happening. Thank you for any answers!

Hi I have figured it out, its the "ease" of using intelij and being able to auto add in, I had this: try { isHit = game.applyGuess(guess); isAcceptable = true; } catch (IllegalAccessError iae) { System.out.println(iae.getMessage()+ "Please try again"); } and you can see it says IllegalAccessError not IllegalArgumentException. oups! I both love being able to use the shortcuts but I have learned from them as well.
