I realize this is probably really stupid

but why doesnt this work?
No brackets around your switch statement... Please, please , check basic syntax before posting without even an explanation of what is wrong 
.
[edit] Referring to the second switch in the first one.

switch (input){ void playgame() { You can't define a function inside of another function.
All you will ever need to know.

Yes codeMunkie is right ... it should also be more like this...
Edit: (i should probably tell you what i changed) you had an extra closing semicolon or two (around your second switch statement) you were declaring your playgame() function inside your start() function (as somebody said that's not legal by any means) and as somebody else said you hadn't put braces around the second switch statement.
