Detailed steps, unique tips, and video context for Match Factory Level 3739. Source video: Match Factory Level 4108.
1Quick Steps
- 1.Start by focusing on the corner pieces to create matches, this will help in clearing the board without filling up the collection bar quickly. Use the corner pieces as a base to build more matches.
- 2.Look for any 'L' shaped or 'T' shaped formations, as these can be used to create multiple matches at once. These configurations often provide the best opportunities for clearing multiple items quickly.
- 3.Prioritize matches that can clear items near the edges of the board, as this helps to open up new spaces and create more potential matches in the center.
- 4.Keep an eye on the collection bar and try to clear items before it gets too full. If you see that it's almost full, focus on making matches that will clear those items first to avoid losing the game.
- 5.Use power-ups wisely. Save them for moments when the board is cluttered and it's hard to make matches. Power-ups can provide a significant advantage in clearing the board quickly.

!Pro Tips
- •Avoid making matches that only clear one or two items if it will significantly fill up your collection bar, as this can lead to a quick game over.
- •Watch out for items that are obstructed by others. Sometimes making a match near these items can clear a path and allow for more matches to be made.
- •Try to create a chain reaction by making matches that lead to other matches. This can help clear the board more efficiently and keep your collection bar from filling up too quickly.

Unlock Strategy→Complete strategy guide — level 3739
Match Factory Level 3739 represents a classic high-tier-tier challenge: plenty of items on the board, but tight tray space and hidden dependencies that punish random clicking. This guide covers the opening strategy, mid-game tray management, and the specific moves players most often get wrong on this level.
Level 3739 in Context
Levels around 3739 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 3739 Distinct
Level 3739 ships with 5 walkthrough steps and 3 pro tips — about 251 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.
If you only remember one thing about Level 3739, remember the order of operations. The board is solvable; it is the sequence that players get wrong.
What Level 3739 Tests
- Corner clearance on Level 3739 — Corner pieces sit behind the fewest neighbours, so they are cheap to clear but expensive to leave: once the middle collapses they can end up walled in by pieces you cannot reach.
- Rim control on Level 3739 — 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.
- Collection-bar economy on Level 3739 — The collection bar is the real clock on this level — not the move count. Every pick-up that does not move a trio closer to completion is effectively a lost slot, and slots are the resource you are actually managing.
How to Start: The Opening Phase
Level 3739 has a specific opening sequence that experienced players learn through trial and error. The key insight is that the first wave of visible items is a decoy — the "real" level hides under the surface pile.
In the opening, prioritize any clicks that reveal hidden items over clicks that just pick up already-visible ones. On most Match Factory boards, this means clicking items from the center-bottom of the pile rather than the outer ring, since central items are usually resting on top of others.
Spend your first 5 clicks purely on "excavation" — revealing buried items. Then take stock of what you can see and plan your first complete match. This two-phase opening (excavate, then match) consistently outperforms random clicking or greedy item collection from the start.
Tray Management: The Core Skill
The tray in Match Factory holds seven items, and on Level 3739, eight wrong clicks in a row will end your run. The board design deliberately creates situations where items from 4–5 different types are visible but none have a full trio accessible — this is the trap.
Surviving this trap means maintaining tray "breathing room." Always try to keep 2–3 open slots. If your tray is at 5 items, stop picking up new types and focus entirely on completing existing partial matches. This might mean clicking items that seem less exciting (like completing a boring coin match) instead of going after the animated special items — but completing that boring match keeps you alive.
On Level 3739 specifically, watch for the moment around the mid-game when the center pile shifts. Items that were blocked early become accessible, and the temptation to grab everything at once is strongest right here. Stay disciplined.
Mid-Game Strategy
The mid-game phase on Level 3739 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 3739.
Step-by-Step Analysis (5 phases)
- This step is easy to misread as optional: "Start by focusing on the corner pieces to create…" Clearing corners is really about board geometry: you are removing the pieces that pinch the pile, which makes every later match easier to reach by hand.
- The second phase narrows the board: "Look for any 'L' shaped or 'T' shaped formations,…" The rim of the board is an information resource. Reading it tells you which item types are plentiful, and that read is what should decide your first committed match.
- A later step worth reading carefully: "Prioritize matches that can clear items near the edges…" Working the middle first is the difference between playing the board you can see and playing the board that is actually there — the outer pieces are mostly a distraction until the centre has moved.
- Step 4 is the one most players skip: "Keep an eye on the collection bar and try…" Think of the bar as a budget: three slots reserved for the trio you are finishing, the rest as working space. Blow the budget early and the rest of the level is damage control.
- The final step is a cleanup instruction: "Use power-ups wisely. Save them for moments when the…" 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
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 3739 without boosters first, and only spend coins once you can name the specific thing that keeps beating you.
If the failure on Level 3739 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 3739.
Undo deserves more credit than it gets on a board like Level 3739. 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 3739: 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
- Panicking when the tray fills to 5–6 items and making random clicks hoping to get lucky.
- Matching single items on empty parts of the board instead of aiming every pick-up at something that is blocking access.
- Treating the level as a speed challenge and clicking too fast to plan ahead. Match Factory rewards deliberate play over speed.
- 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 3739. Taken together they point at one theme — corner clearance — 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 3739?
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.
How many steps does it take to clear Level 3739?
The walkthrough for Level 3739 is broken into 5 phases, backed by 3 pro tips and roughly 251 words of board-specific guidance. An efficient clear generally lands somewhere in the 20–35 move range depending on how the pile settles, and runs that stretch well past that usually indicate a clogged tray rather than bad luck.
What should I focus on first in Level 3739?
Start with visibility, not matches. Level 3739 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.
Don't get discouraged if Level 3739 takes a few attempts — even with the optimal strategy, some board randomization means not every run comes together. The key is learning something from each failed attempt: did the tray fill up too early? Did you miss the mid-game item cascade? Use each run as data, refine your approach, and the clear will come.
