# --description--
While your game is feature-complete at this stage, there are things you can do to make it more fun and engaging. To get started, you'll give `monsters` a dynamic attack value.
Inside your `attack` function, change your `health -= monsters[fighting].level;` line to `health -= getMonsterAttackValue(monsters[fighting].level);`. This sets `health` equal to `health` minus the return value of the `getMonsterAttackValue` function, and passes the `level` of the monster as an argument.
# --hints--
You should update your `health` line to be `health -= getMonsterAttackValue(monsters[fighting].level);`.
```js
assert.match(attack.toString(), /health\s*-=\s*getMonsterAttackValue\(\s*monsters\s*\[\s*fighting\s*\]\s*\.level\s*\)/);
```
