Detailed steps, unique tips, and video context for Match Factory Level 3369. Source video: Match Factory Level 2759.
1Quick Steps
- 1.Start by focusing on clearing the center columns first. This will give you more flexibility to match items from the sides later on.
- 2.Look for any 'L' or 'T' shaped matches that can be made in the collection bar. These can help you clear multiple items at once, freeing up more space.
- 3.Prioritize matching items that are close to the edges of the board. This will help prevent the board from getting too cluttered and reduce the chances of the collection bar filling up.
- 4.Keep an eye on the number of each item in the collection bar. Try to match items that are nearing their limit to avoid getting stuck with too many of one type.
- 5.Use power-ups sparingly. Save them for when the board is particularly challenging or when you're running out of moves. A well-timed power-up can make a significant difference in a tight level like this.

Try a different opening sequence, focus on tray space, or consider boosters.
!Pro Tips
- •Avoid making matches that only clear one item at a time, as this will quickly fill up your collection bar. Aim for matches that clear at least two or three items.
- •Don't be afraid to make matches that don't immediately clear items from the board. Sometimes, these can set up more opportunities for larger matches later on.
- •Watch out for items that are blocked by other items or obstacles. Try to create matches that can clear these blockers, as they can often lead to larger matches and help you progress in the level.

Stuck on Match Factory Level 3369? You're not alone. This high-tier level trips up even experienced players because it requires a specific sequencing discipline that isn't obvious from the layout. Whether you've attempted it once or a dozen times, the strategy below will help you understand why your previous runs failed — and what to do differently.
Level 3369 in Context
Levels around 3369 are where Match Factory stops being forgiving about order of operations. Two players can make the same number of matches and end up in completely different board states, purely because one sequenced their clicks around the buried layer and the other did not.
What Makes Level 3369 Distinct
Level 3369 ships with 5 walkthrough steps and 3 pro tips — about 242 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 3369 Tests
- Centre-first excavation on Level 3369 — The centre of the pile is where item density is highest, so breaking it open early pays for itself twice: you expose more pieces and you create the cascades that make the rest of the board readable.
- Rim control on Level 3369 — 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.
- Move sequencing on Level 3369 — This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
How to Start: The Opening Phase
The first 8–10 clicks in Level 3369 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
The seven-slot tray is the heart of every Match Factory battle, and Level 3369 is no exception. The most common reason players fail this level is a clogged tray — they pick up items from too many different categories before completing any match, until the tray fills with seven mismatched pieces and the run is over.
The rule of thumb: never have more than three different item types in your tray at once. If you already have two red apples, the third click should be on another red apple, not a blue toy. Resist the urge to "collect first, match later." On Level 3369 the board can look deceptively open early on, making it tempting to grab items at random. Don't fall for it.
A practical trick: mentally label each tray slot before you click. Ask yourself "does this click complete a match or get me closer to one?" If the honest answer is no, skip it and find a click that does.
Mid-Game Strategy
Around the halfway mark of Level 3369, the board opens up significantly — and this is both an opportunity and a trap. With more items visible, it's tempting to be aggressive and pick up everything. Resist this.
Instead, use the mid-game opening to take stock and plan. Mentally sort the visible items into two categories: "ready to match" (you can see 3+ of the same type) and "not ready" (you can only see 1 or 2). Your priority queue should be clear: finish all "ready to match" items first, then work on exposing the "not ready" items.
On Level 3369 in particular, there's often a cluster of similar items near the bottom of the board that only becomes accessible in the mid-game. Don't be impatient — trying to dig them out before the board naturally reveals them wastes moves and tray space.
Step-by-Step Analysis (5 phases)
- This is where the level starts to tighten: "Start by focusing on clearing the center columns first.…" Treat the centre as the level's engine room. Every match up there tends to shake loose pieces that were sealed under the top layer, which is why this step comes before any tidy-up work on the outside.
- The mid-phase step is the pivot of the run: "Look for any 'L' or 'T' shaped matches that…" Bar discipline beats speed here. Keeping two or three slots free at all times is what turns a losing board into a recoverable one, because it leaves room to react when a buried piece finally appears.
- The final step is a cleanup instruction: "Prioritize matching items that are close to the edges…" 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.
- Step 4 is the one most players skip: "Keep an eye on the number of each item…" Edge work is about access: rim pieces rarely block anything important, so they are the safest place to spend clicks when you are waiting for a buried item to surface.
- A later step worth reading carefully: "Use power-ups sparingly. Save them for when the board…" Edge work is about access: rim pieces rarely block anything important, so they are the safest place to spend clicks when you are waiting for a buried item to surface.
Booster Strategy
Without a stored difficulty rating for Level 3369, plan the run around what you can observe: how many item types are visible, how deeply the pile is layered, and how quickly your tray fills. Those three readings tell you more about booster need on Level 3369 than any label would.
Practical order of operations for Level 3369: play it clean first, note the exact moment the run goes wrong, then pick the booster that addresses that moment. Blocked access early is a Fan problem. A missing third copy late is a Magnet problem. A single bad click that snowballed is an Undo problem.
Do not stack boosters on one attempt at Level 3369 unless you are close to finishing an event or Swagbucks objective where the coins pay for themselves. On a normal run, one well-timed booster beats three desperate ones, and the coins you save cover several future attempts.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Ignoring the center pile in favor of outer-edge items, which are easier to click but often block access to the most important pieces.
- Picking up items from too many different categories in the opening moves, filling the tray with unmatched pairs.
- Neglecting to use the Undo button after a clear tray mistake. One Undo used immediately can save an entire run.
- Using a Fan booster when the tray is already 5+ items full — the reshuffled board can't be exploited with no tray room.
Pro Tips Explained
The 3 pro tips above come from the failure patterns that show up repeatedly on Level 3369. Taken together they point at one theme — centre-first excavation — 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
Does the item layout change every time I play Level 3369?
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 should I focus on first in Level 3369?
Start with visibility, not matches. Level 3369 hides part of its item distribution under the surface layer, so your first job is to expose enough of the board to know which types are plentiful. Once you can see two copies of a type, that type becomes a safe commitment; until then, treat every pick-up as a slot you may not get back.
Is Match Factory Level 3369 beatable without boosters?
Yes — Level 3369 sits in the high-tier band of the game, and its 5-step walkthrough is designed to be followed without spending coins. The key is tray discipline: never collect from more than two or three item categories at once, and prioritize completing existing partial matches over picking up new items. Follow the step order above rather than improvising, because on this board the sequence matters more than raw speed.
Match Factory Level 3369 rewards patience and planning over speed and luck. Use the walkthrough steps as your framework, apply the tray management principles to every click, and don't hesitate to use the Undo button when you catch a mistake early. With focused play, this level is very much within reach. Good luck on your next attempt!
