Using location.reload on Chrome is not working as it should, using the same code in Firefox works fine

I am making a Snake game using Javascript and checking if the user has touched the borders, if he has than it's gameover and a game over function is called which shows a confirm box with it's content based on the language of the html file because i have 2 html files: one for French and one for English.

this.alert = alert;

this.gameOver = function() {
    const langCheck = document.getElementById("html").lang;
    if (langCheck === "fr") {
      alert = confirm("\t\tPerdu!\n\n Votre longueur était: " + this.eaten);
    } else {
      alert = confirm(
        "\t\tGame Over!\n\n Your snake length was: " + this.eaten
      );
    }
    console.log(alert);

    if (alert === true) {
      document.location.reload(true);
    } else {
      document.location.reload(true);
    }
  };

In chrome when i click either Ok or Cancel the confirm box just reopens instantly and it doesn't reload (Edit: Forgot to mention but the page just hangs after clicking ok) even though console logging alert it returns true. So why isn't this working on Chrome when on Firefox it's working perfectly?

I tried many different location.reload i saw when i researched on it like window.location.reload() but it's the exact same.

I'm stuck here because as i said in Firefox it works flawlessly and that's where i initially tested when i programmed the game but when i finished i decided to take a look if on Chrome it worked, that's when i found out.
