beginner python on looping back to the start of my simple number guessing game

Question

This is my code so far (in PyCharm), I am writing a very simple number guessing game that has integers from 1-9. I am still trying to master thought & flow as well as loops, and I hit a roadblock:

import random


Player_Name = input("What is your name?\n")
print(f"Hello {Player_Name}!\n")
random_num = random.randint(1, 10)
guess = int(input("What is the number you want to pick? Guess one, 1-9\n"))


def number_game():
    if guess == random_num:
        print(f"You guessed right, the number is confirmed to be {random_num}.")
    else:
        print(f"You guessed the wrong number. Try again.\n")


number_game()

I called the function and ran the code... everything appears to be working except I really can't figure out how to keep the game going in a loop until the player gets the right number out of 1-9...and end it when I need to. I tried searching all my resources and am quite stuck on this beginner practice coding. Any help is appreciated.

What I wrote and tried is above... googling and stackoverflow just confused me more.

Honestly, there are many ways to do what you want. But using your code as base, this is one possible solution.

import random


Player_Name = input("What is your name?\n")
print(f"Hello {Player_Name}!\n")
random_num = random.randint(1, 10)



def number_game():
    guess = int(input("What is the number you want to pick? Guess one, 1-9\n"))
    if guess == random_num:
        print(f"You guessed right, the number is confirmed to be {random_num}.")
        return True
    else:
        print(f"You guessed the wrong number. Try again.\n")
        return False


while True:
    guessed_right = number_game()

    if guessed_right:
        quit()
    else:
        number_game()
