Hello!
The infamous task 77 strikes again :wink:

You only have to put the placeholder “condition” into the if condition for now and just for the gold value.
So many people are struggling with this task, there’s already a ticket out to make it clearer (It’s beta after all).

Similar to this?
function buyHealth() {
if(“gold >= 10”){
gold -= 10
health += 10
goldText.innerText = gold;
healthText.innerText = health;
}
}

Just “condition” as the placeholder, no real condition yet.

That makes sense

Something like this?

function buyHealth() {
if (“health is equal or higher than 10”) {

}
}

I found the solution:

Tip for the others:

  • use the word condition as a text and write it into the parameter
  • add the original information inside the function into the if brackets
