  RegExr is a HTML/JS based tool for creating, testing, and learning about Regular Expressions.

First time posting here, let me know if I need to edit post to conform to any rules. My issue is that I'm trying to match regex pattern to separate out the number of cubes drawn and its color but my Matcher object seems to not be returning any matches so it's throwing a no match found exception when I try to call digitMatcher.group(). I have tested my regex pattern on sites like regexr and it seems to pass there but it's not working for some reason here. I use the same type of regex on day one and it work there so I'm not sure where my regex pattern is failing here. I'm talking about specifically in my isGameValid() method where I create a matcher base on a pattern I made above. Through debugging I know that I separated the string color pairing correctly and that my Matcher object has the correct regex pattern, it's just not matching for some reason. Any help would be appreciated. Code below:
