The cabinet was pretty hard, as it looks very different from the actual in-game one.

Pretty fun.  28/30 in 2:14.  I only play with CopePage graphics.  A little odd without the coloration in the characters, though.  I didn't get the:

The change in font made it a little difficult.

I got all of them right. :) Cabinet tile is actually a throne, though.

I cut & pasted the tiles directly from the Wiki.

To eliminate the confusion, I swapped out the cabinet with a slab.

That was actually harder than I thought.  I play in ASCII, and I still had trouble.  Probalby because I dont play as often as I used to.  Ran out of time with about 10 left.

But you could easily just match the letters for animals. I got them all, and I don't even ASCII.

Yeah, most things I could guess.  I use creature graphics, but was still able to guess the creatures.  I thought elf and elephant were both capital E, but guessed correctly anyway.

Ladels threw me.  wasn't sure if it was the note or the paragraph.  Embarrassing enough, I got barrels wrong.  Probably because of the font difference, but more likely due to the lack of background color.

Once I got ond wrong, my confidence and speed dropped
