Fusion is Good but I'm Having a couple issues.

I’m unable to create a sketch on the top face of a rook chess piece model. When I select the face, it highlights correctly and allows me to click on it, but Fusion 360 doesn’t start a new sketch.

I’ve ensured that nothing else is selected before attempting to create the sketch. This issue first appeared after the most recent update. Restarting Fusion 360 usually resolves it, but this time the problem persists.

Steps Tried:

Verified that all selections were cleared
Restarted Fusion 360
Reopened the file

Expected Behavior:
Fusion 360 should allow a new sketch to be created on the selected face.

Only if the face is flat / planar. Curved or twisted is an illegal request.

Might help…..

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

My guess is that @davebYYPCU is correct in that the face isn't planar.
