One step at a time

Combine a stored visitor level and a comparison to choose an entry message. The requirement is at least level 5: level 5 is allowed, while level 4 is blocked.

Your task

Observed-output goal: display "Blocked", in that order. For level 4, display Blocked. Build an if/else entry check for at least level 5, then try 5 and 6 in Free experiment. This output check verifies the displayed message for level 4 only. Completion checks these outputs and value types only; the example's structure is an experiment, not a required solution.

Expected output

Blocked

Lines must stay in order. Spelling, capitalization and spaces inside a message matter.

What this exercise checks

Actual Output · exact lines and order · extra output forbidden.

Successful execution is required. A compile error, runtime error or execution limit never completes this task.

Whitespace, matching single or double quotes, and different variable names are allowed. Output-only tasks accept any valid Luau solution meeting the displayed result and value types. Construct tasks use the stated straight-line form.
