I can not get the idea, I went through the course and I understand the logic but this question is out of hand.

No details

script.js 
if ( correctGuess === true ) {
  correctGuess = true;
    alert('This is true');
} else {
    alert('This is false');
}

The questions asks you to just add a boolean to the conditional statement so you have over complicated things. All you need is

if ( true ) {
    alert('This is true');
} else {
    alert('This is false');
}
