If Match Factory Level 9720 has you stuck, the issue almost certainly isn't luck. This endgame stage has a reliable solution path once you understand the underlying puzzle structure. The walkthrough and tips below are distilled from repeated playthroughs and community input to give you the fastest, most booster-efficient route to the finish.
Level 9720 in Context
At Level 9720 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 9720 Distinct
Level 9720 ships with 6 walkthrough steps and 2 pro tips — about 104 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 9720 Tests
- Collection-bar economy on Level 9720 — 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.
- Bottom-up clearing on Level 9720 — Starting low matters because bottom-heavy piles release their items in waves. Clear the base and the upper layer loses support, which drops new matches into reach without extra clicks.
- Move sequencing on Level 9720 — 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 9720 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 9720 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 9720 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
The mid-game phase on Level 9720 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 9720.
Step-by-Step Analysis (6 phases)
- The opening step sets the tone: "Level 9720 challenges you to clear every match without…" 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.
- The second phase narrows the board: "Work systematically from one side of the board 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.
- This step is easy to misread as optional: "Tap on matching items to select them and add…" The lower rows are where the board keeps its tempo. If you let them sit while picking at the top, you spend the mid-game unpicking a pile that should already be gone.
- A later step worth reading carefully: "Focus on efficiency - every move counts in challenging…" Prioritising is the whole skill here: rank the visible item types by how close they are to a trio, then work that list top-down instead of clicking whatever catches your eye.
- Step 5 is the one most players skip: "Restart immediately if you fill the bar with no…" 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: "Stay calm under pressure and maintain your concentration throughout." Anything covered by two or more pieces should wait. Committing to a buried type too early is how a tray ends up holding two items it cannot complete.
Booster Strategy
Because Level 9720 has no difficulty rating attached, the safest assumption is that it sits near the middle of the curve: beatable with a clean run, frustrating with a careless one. Boosters exist to convert the second case into the first.
If you decide to use one on Level 9720, pick the moment deliberately. The best windows are right after a completed trio, when your tray has room, or right before a cluster you know is blocking a whole item type. Both are moments where the board state is simple enough to evaluate the result.
Track what you spend on Level 9720 across attempts. Two attempts with one booster each usually beats five attempts with none, but only if the booster is aimed at the actual failure — otherwise you are paying coins to repeat the same mistake with a different layout.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Picking up a "dead end" item — one where you can only see 1 copy — and holding it for 8+ moves while hunting for the other two.
- Leaving corner pieces for last, then discovering they are walled in once the middle of the board has collapsed.
- Clicking the most visually prominent items (shiny, animated) instead of the strategically correct items.
- Panicking when the tray fills to 5–6 items and making random clicks hoping to get lucky.
Pro Tips Explained
The 2 pro tips above come from the failure patterns that show up repeatedly on Level 9720. Taken together they point at one theme — collection-bar economy — 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
How many steps does it take to clear Level 9720?
The walkthrough for Level 9720 is broken into 6 phases, backed by 2 pro tips and roughly 104 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.
Why do I keep failing Match Factory Level 9720?
The most common reason players repeatedly fail Level 9720 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's the fastest way to beat Level 9720 without watching a video?
The fastest text-only approach for Level 9720: 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.
Match Factory Level 9720 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!
