My level is in the third world and its level 12.  
The error is that as soon as the “ogre” comes the hero does not move and he/she would die.

```python
// Only attack enemies of type "munchkin" and "thrower".
// Don't attack a "burl". Run away from an "ogre"!
while(true) {
    var enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy();
    
    // Remember: don't attack type "burl"!
    if (enemy.type == "burl") {
        hero.say("I'm not attacking that Burl!");
    }
    
    // The "type" property tells you what kind of creature it is.
    if (enemy.type == "munchkin") {
        hero.attack(enemy);
    }
    
    // Use "if" to attack a "thrower".
    if (enemy.type == "thrower") {
        hero.attack(enemy) ;
    }
    }
    // If it's an "ogre", use moveXY to run away to the village gate!
    if (enemy.type == "ogre") {
         hero.moveXY(22, 47) ;
   }

```

your `if` is outside the while loop
