If I didn't misunderstood your question, you want to stop it after you alert that the guess is correct.
Your loop is checking that finished is true or not, so your loop will not stop if finished is still false.
The solution is to set the finished to true. The following code should work:
function do_game()
var random_color = color[Math.floor(Math.random() * color.length)]; // Get a Random value from array
target = random_color;
while (!finished)
guess_input_text = prompt("I am thinking of one of these colors:- nn" +
color.join(", ") +
".nnWhat color am I thinking of?");
guess_input = guess_input_text;
guesses += 1;
if( guess_input === target)
alert("Your Guess is Right.Congratulations!");
finished = true;
// You can also use break statement to
// make sure that the loop will stop.
