9,207 PointsHere is my solution, everything is working as it should except the part where I used the logical OR operator.
// First question
let correctGuessLondon = false;
let score = 0;
let rank = '';
const ukCapital = prompt('What is the capital of Great Britain?');
if ( ukCapital === 'London') {
correctGuessLondon = true;
}
if (correctGuessLondon === true) {
score = 1;
}
// Second question
let correctGuessTrump = false;
const usPresident = prompt('Who is the president of USA?');
if ( usPresident === 'Donald Trump') {
correctGuessTrump = true;
}
if ( correctGuessTrump === true ) {
score += 1;
}
// Third question
let correctGuessRiver = false;
const bigRiver = prompt('What is the biggest river in Europe?');
if ( bigRiver === 'Danube' ) {
correctGuessRiver = true;
}
if ( correctGuessRiver === true ) {
score += 1;
}
// Forth question
let correctGuessCar = false;
const car = prompt('What is the second word in the Mercedes brand?');
if ( car === 'Benz' ) {
correctGuessCar = true;
}
if ( correctGuessCar === true ) {
score += 1;
}
// Fifth question
let correctGuessFingers = false;
let fingers = prompt('How many fingers has the human?');
if ( fingers === '20' || fingers === 'Twenty' ) /* THAT'S WHERE INPUT "20"
DOESN'T WORK */
{
correctGuessFingers = true;
}
if ( correctGuessFingers === true ) {
score += 1;
}
// Player's rank and Displayed message
if ( score === 0 ) {
rank = 'No Crown';
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML =
`<h1>You got 0 out of 5 questions correct.</h1>
<p>Crown earned: ${rank}</p>`;
} else if ( score === 1 ) {
rank = 'Bronze';
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML =
`<h1>You got 1 out of 5 questions correct.</h1>
<p>Crown earned: ${rank}</p>`;
} else if ( score === 2 ) {
rank = 'Bronze';
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML =
`<h1>You got 2 out of 5 questions correct.</h1>
<p>Crown earned: ${rank}</p>`;
} else if ( score === 3 ) {
rank = 'Silver';
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML =
`<h1>You got 3 out of 5 questions correct.</h1>
<p>Crown earned: ${rank}</p>`;
} else if ( score === 4 ) {
rank = 'Silver';
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML =
`<h1>You got 4 out of 5 questions correct.</h1>
<p>Crown earned: ${rank}</p>`;
} else if ( score === 5 ) {
rank = 'Gold';
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML =
`<h1>You got 5 out of 5 questions correct.</h1>
<p>Crown earned: ${rank}</p>`;
}

And when posting code to the forum, use Markdown formatting to preserve the appearance.
