Python 3 Global Variable Help

[Tridium]

Hi, I'm just learning python and I'm still an absolute beginner, but I've decided to try my hand at a choose your own adventure game.
My goal is to to create a new global variable within a function in order to call it while outside of that function.
I've tried a few things but I'm stuck. I introduce the global variable on line 101. My check is the last line of the code.

The game is working fine as of so far, but any information on getting started for my code that is commented out would also be appreciated

def playagain():
    answer = input('Play again? Y or N')
    if answer == "Y":
        print('Goodluck!')
        levelone()
    else:
        print('Goodbye!')


def get_user_input():
    """Prompts the user for its choice and return it."""
    user_input = input('Choose: ').lower().strip()
    return user_input
def replay():
    user_input = input('Play again Yes/No: ').lower().strip()

    if user_input == 'yes':
        print('_' * 100)
        levelone()
    elif user_input == 'no':
        print('thanks for playing!')
        print("That's all for now")
