Rock, Paper, Scissors game in Javascript

Question

Good evening guys this is my very first project so cut some slack please. I am making a Rock paper, scissors game for the Odin project which is supposed to run in the console.

Currently everything works fine until i implemented the function called game().

I assumed it would call the playRound() function until playerscore, or computerscore reached 5. but it is currently only working twice. It prompts once up top for playerSelection and prompts again for playerSelection within function game();

How could I get game() to run until either playerscore or computerscore reaches 5? And display result for each round?

let playerScore = 0;
let computerScore = 0;


function computerPlay() {
    let choices = ['rock', 'paper', 'scissors']
    return choices[Math.floor(Math.random() * choices.length)]
}

let computerSelection = computerPlay();


let playerSelection = prompt("Make your selection, Rock, paper or Scissors").toLowerCase();

function playRound(playerSelection, computerSelection){
    if ((playerSelection == "rock" && computerSelection == "scissors") ||
       (playerSelection == "scissors" && computerSelection == "paper") ||
       (playerSelection == "paper" && computerSelection == "rock")){
        playerScore++;
        return ("You win! " + playerSelection + " beats " + computerSelection + ", the score is Player:" + playerScore + " Computer:" + computerScore);
       } else if (playerSelection == computerSelection){
        return "Draw!"
       } else {
        computerScore++
        return ("You lose! " + computerSelection+ ", beats " + playerSelection + " the score is Player:" + playerScore + " Computer:" + computerScore)
       }
}




function game(){
    if (playerScore < 5 && computerScore < 5) {
        let playerSelection = prompt("Make your selection, Rock, paper or Scissors").toLowerCase();
        playRound(playerSelection, computerSelection)
    } 
}
   
game();



console.log(playRound(playerSelection,computerSelection));
