Unlock Strategy→Complete strategy guide — level 13087
Match Factory Level 13087 is one of those endgame puzzles that looks manageable at first glance but quickly reveals hidden complexity once you start moving pieces. Players who rush through the opening moves without a plan almost always find themselves with a full tray and no clear path forward. This guide breaks down exactly what you need to know to clear it efficiently on your next attempt.
Level 13087 in Context
At Level 13087 the margin for error is thin enough that a single careless pick-up can decide the run. The good news is that the same principles still work — excavation, tray economy, and sequencing — they simply have to be applied without the slack earlier levels provided.
What Makes Level 13087 Distinct
Level 13087 ships with 6 walkthrough steps and 2 pro tips — about 99 words of board-specific guidance. Reading those first is worth more than any general advice, because they describe this exact pile rather than Match Factory in general.
Everything below is written for the board as it stands at the start of a run. If the pile settles differently for you, keep the principles and adjust the specifics.
What Level 13087 Tests
- Move sequencing on Level 13087 — This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
- Special-item handling on Level 13087 — Special items are worth chasing only after the board is readable. Taken early they eat bar space while their partners are still hidden, which is the opposite of what they are for.
- Rim control on Level 13087 — Outer pieces are the ones you can see but usually should not take first. Use them as a reserve so that when the tray needs a quick completion you already know where the third copy sits.
How to Start: The Opening Phase
The first 8–10 clicks in Level 13087 largely determine whether you'll win or not. The goal of the opening phase is simple: create visibility. The more items you can see, the better your decision-making.
Start by targeting items on the outer edges and top of the main pile — these are the "unlock" items that expose what's beneath. Don't try to complete matches in the first few moves unless one falls right into your lap. Instead, think of the opening as an "information gathering" phase where your goal is to expose the widest possible selection of items.
After 6–8 clicks you should have a much clearer picture of which item types are densely represented (meaning they're easy to match) versus which types have most of their copies buried deep. Use this information to decide your first committed match sequence.
Tray Management: The Core Skill
Tray discipline is the single most important skill to bring to Level 13087. Unlike earlier stages where you can recover from a cluttered tray by matching your way out, this level's layout means a full tray is almost certainly a failed run.
Here's the key discipline to practice: commit to finishing one item type before picking up another. If you spot a green bottle and pick it up, your next two clicks should be hunting for the other two green bottles — not grabbing a coin or a red sneaker that caught your eye.
Also pay attention to how deeply buried certain items are. On boards like Level 13087, some item types appear mostly near the bottom of the pile. If you pick up one of them early but can't complete the trio for 10+ moves, you've effectively given up a tray slot for a long time. Prioritize item types that you can see at least two of before you start collecting.
Mid-Game Strategy
The mid-game phase on Level 13087 is when you need to shift from reactive clicking to proactive planning. You've probably got a rough sense of the board layout by now — use that knowledge.
The key mid-game skill is "look-ahead" — instead of clicking the next obvious match, trace 2–3 moves into the future. "If I pick up this yellow star now, what opens up? Can I complete the yellow star match in the next 2 clicks? What does that expose?" Players who think one move at a time in the mid-game almost always find themselves in trouble by the final third of the level.
Also watch for "dead end" item types — items where you can only see 1 copy and there's no way to know where the other two are. Avoid picking these up until you can see all three. Holding a dead-end item in your tray for 8+ moves while hunting for its partners is a classic trap on Level 13087.
Step-by-Step Analysis (6 phases)
- The final step is a cleanup instruction: "Conquer Level 13087 by scanning the full board and…" This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
- A later step worth reading carefully: "Start by matching items that are blocking access to…" Planning clicks in advance is not slow play — on a board with this much hidden information it is the only way to avoid spending slots on items you cannot finish.
- The mid-phase step is the pivot of the run: "Clear obstacles and locked items early to open up…" Planning clicks in advance is not slow play — on a board with this much hidden information it is the only way to avoid spending slots on items you cannot finish.
- Step 4 is the one most players skip: "Use the shuffle power-up if you can't find any…" Special items are worth chasing only after the board is readable. Taken early they eat bar space while their partners are still hidden, which is the opposite of what they are for.
- The opening step sets the tone: "Focus on efficiency - every move counts in challenging…" Planning clicks in advance is not slow play — on a board with this much hidden information it is the only way to avoid spending slots on items you cannot finish.
- This is where the level starts to tighten: "Identify the most constrained items that have limited matching…" This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
Booster Strategy
This level's record doesn't carry an official difficulty rating, so treat the booster question as a judgement call rather than a rule. The honest guidance: attempt Level 13087 without boosters first, and only spend coins once you can name the specific thing that keeps beating you.
If the failure on Level 13087 is a jammed board — items clustered so that nothing useful is reachable — the Fan is the right tool, ideally with two or fewer items in the tray so you can actually use the new layout. If the failure is one stubborn item type whose third copy you can never find, the Magnet is cheaper than another full attempt on Level 13087.
Undo deserves more credit than it gets on a board like Level 13087. A single Undo after a bar-clogging mistake costs less than replaying the level, and it teaches you where the mistake happened better than a fresh run does.
One rule that applies to every attempt at Level 13087: never launch a booster into a full tray. The board changes but you cannot react to it, which turns a resource into a wasted click.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Matching single items on empty parts of the board instead of aiming every pick-up at something that is blocking access.
- Ignoring the center pile in favor of outer-edge items, which are easier to click but often block access to the most important pieces.
- Treating the level as a speed challenge and clicking too fast to plan ahead. Match Factory rewards deliberate play over speed.
- Starting the run without a mental plan for which item types to prioritize. The first 5 clicks should be intentional, not random.
Pro Tips Explained
The 2 pro tips above come from the failure patterns that show up repeatedly on Level 13087. Taken together they point at one theme — move sequencing — which is the skill this particular board is really testing. Read them as a checklist before your next attempt rather than as background reading.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I keep failing Match Factory Level 13087?
The most common reason players repeatedly fail Level 13087 is tray mismanagement in the opening moves. If you pick up items from too many categories before completing any match, the seven-slot tray fills with unmatched pieces and the run is effectively over. Replay it with a single rule: never hold more than three different item types at the same time.
Does the item layout change every time I play Level 13087?
Match Factory uses seeded layouts with minor randomization between attempts. The overall board structure — which item types appear and roughly how many of each — stays the same, but the exact position of buried pieces can shift. That is why a strategy that "almost worked" last time is usually worth retrying rather than abandoning.
What's the fastest way to beat Level 13087 without watching a video?
The fastest text-only approach for Level 13087: spend the first eight clicks excavating rather than matching, identify the two or three item types you can see the most of, complete those trios in full before touching anything else, then let the physics settle and reassess. This disciplined loop clears most Match Factory boards without a video guide.
Level 13087 is beatable with the right approach. Take your time with the opening moves, keep the tray clean, and trust the step-by-step process. If you're still struggling after a few attempts using this guide, try leaving the level and coming back later — sometimes a fresh perspective is all it takes. Good luck, and remember: the next level is always just one smart run away.
