1Quick Steps

  1. 1.Scan the board and identify all triples of identical items, focusing on those that are partially buried under others, as they will require careful sequencing to access.
  2. 2.Prioritize clearing items from the center of the board first, since these are often the most obstructed and clearing them opens up multiple layers for easier matches later.
  3. 3.When selecting items for the collection bar, avoid picking a third item of a type unless you already have two of that type in the bar, to prevent unnecessary slot usage.
  4. 4.Use the shuffle power-up only when the board has fewer than 10 items left or when no valid triples are visible, as it can rearrange items into more favorable positions.
  5. 5.If the collection bar is filling up, deliberately match a triple you already have in the bar by finding the third item on the board, even if it means temporarily ignoring other matches.
  6. 6.Keep an eye on the timer and aim to clear at least one triple every 10-15 seconds; if you fall behind, focus on the most accessible triples to regain momentum.
  7. 7.Before making a move that reveals new items, check if any of those items match existing singles in your collection bar to plan your next few taps efficiently.

Level 5320 Strategy Notes

This is one of our priority Match Factory walkthroughs because it is either a recent level update or an Ultra Hard stage. Treat the first attempt as a scan: identify the largest visible clusters, then clear exposed triples before digging into buried objects.

For Level 5320, the safest route is to keep at least two tray slots open while you work through the first half of the board. If a match needs a third item that is still hidden, leave that pair alone and switch to a visible set instead.

Try a different opening sequence, focus on tray space, or consider boosters.

!Pro Tips

  • •Don't tap items randomly hoping to get lucky; each tap should be part of a planned sequence to avoid clogging the collection bar with unmatched items.
  • •Save power-ups for the final stretch when the board is sparse and matches are hard to spot; using them early wastes their potential to rescue a nearly full bar.
  • •Pay attention to item types that appear in odd numbers on the board; these are often traps that can leave you with a stranded item if you don't clear them in the right order.

Complete strategy guide — level 5320

Match Factory Level 5320 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 5320 in Context

Level 5320 is endgame territory. At this point in your Match Factory journey, you've seen every board element the game has to offer — the challenge now is executing known strategies with precision under increasingly difficult constraints.

What Makes Level 5320 Distinct

Level 5320 ships with 7 walkthrough steps and 3 pro tips — about 296 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 5320 Tests

  1. Layered burial on Level 5320 — Buried items are the level's pacing mechanism: the board deliberately hides part of each item type so you cannot finish a trio without doing excavation work first.
  2. Move sequencing on Level 5320 — This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
  3. Centre-first excavation on Level 5320 — 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.

How to Start: The Opening Phase

Level 5320 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

Tray discipline is the single most important skill to bring to Level 5320. 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 5320, 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

Around the halfway mark of Level 5320, 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 5320 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 (7 phases)

  1. The second phase narrows the board: "Scan the board and identify all triples of identical…" Treat deeply buried pieces as a future obligation rather than a current target. Note where they are, keep the type in mind, and clear the layer above them before committing slots to it.
  2. The opening step sets the tone: "Prioritize clearing items from the center of the board…" 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.
  3. The mid-phase step is the pivot of the run: "When selecting items for the collection bar, avoid picking…" 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.
  4. A later step worth reading carefully: "Use the shuffle power-up only when the board has…" Special items often sit near the surface, which makes them tempting decoys. Clear the ordinary pieces around them first so the payoff actually lands.
  5. This step is easy to misread as optional: "If the collection bar is filling up, deliberately match…" 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.
  6. This is where the level starts to tighten: "Keep an eye on the timer and aim to…" Timed stages reward a narrow focus: pick one item type, finish it, then re-scan. Wide scanning burns the seconds you need for the last two matches.
  7. The final step is a cleanup instruction: "Before making a move that reveals new items, check…" 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.

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 5320 without boosters first, and only spend coins once you can name the specific thing that keeps beating you.

If the failure on Level 5320 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 5320.

Undo deserves more credit than it gets on a board like Level 5320. 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 5320: 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

  1. Giving up before the mid-game reveal. Many Match Factory levels look impossible until the surface pile clears, at which point they become manageable.
  2. Forgetting that the physics engine can shift items. Sometimes matching one cluster causes buried items to roll out — watch for this instead of immediately clicking.
  3. Leaving corner pieces for last, then discovering they are walled in once the middle of the board has collapsed.
  4. Matching single items on empty parts of the board instead of aiming every pick-up at something that is blocking access.

Pro Tips Explained

The 3 pro tips above come from the failure patterns that show up repeatedly on Level 5320. Taken together they point at one theme — layered burial — 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 5320?

The most common reason players repeatedly fail Level 5320 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.

What should I focus on first in Level 5320?

Start with visibility, not matches. Level 5320 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 there a trick to Match Factory Level 5320?

The closest thing to a trick on Level 5320 is using the physics simulation deliberately. When you complete a match involving pieces that sit next to a buried cluster, the simulation rolls those hidden items into view for free. Aiming matches at pieces that support the pile therefore reveals more than aiming at whichever item happens to be nearest your cursor.

That covers Level 5320 end to end: the opening read, the tray rules that keep the run alive, the phase-by-phase sequence, and when a booster is actually worth the coins. Follow the order rather than improvising and the board stops feeling unfair. On to the next one.
