Good quiz, please change Wizard, I tried miner, gangster, covid, masked man, guru etc. Wizard I would have got if he had a pointed hat not a droopy one as in the picture :o)
I tried this quiz a few times just by remembering the words themselves, but couldn't do better than 13. Then I tried the memory palace trick and got all 16 on my next try in 37 seconds :)
The vast majority were fine, but postbox/letterbox and padlock should be added I suggest - it's much harder when you have to stop halfway and think what an alternative name might be!
The Crocodile eats the Rabbit which has the Ears of a Penguin that likes musical Notes, whilst the Saw cuts the Boomerang. Meanwhile, America's Diamonds are the Key to the Lock on Foot Artists who play with Dogs and Bees in the Trees.
I find nonsense helps when doing instant memory tests.
For me, the more ridiculous the story, the easier it is to remember.
I got a camel stopped at a cactus that died. Then, an airplane dropped a basketball on an artist painting a flamingo instead of a pig, a peacock, and a bone. Finally, a wizard lit a candle, and clapped in the ears of someone outside the window.
Making the stories takes practice. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it, though.
I had no idea what the frog was supposed to be. I saw the nose holes as eyes, so I'm thinking, gummy bear? Once I saw the answer, it was obvious. Funny how the mind works. Others that people had trouble with were obvious to me.
Best way to do this is to make up a story about the pictures so the wizard kept a rabbit under his hat and had a pet crocodile which he fed sheep to..... You get the idea.
This totally worked for me. I couldn't get past 11 and then did stories by grouping the items that were near each other and got them all with time to spare. I feel bad though for that poor mouse that the chef prepared for the chimpanzee by moonlight.
I loved this quiz! It took me a good little bit to get it 100%, but my story about seeing from bed the closeted flamingo’s birthday party play out somehow was interesting enough to my brain, finally :D
What worked for me: group all the animals together. So you can say like, horse looks like giraffe, frog eats spider, chicken fights peacock, etc.
Then the remaining pictures you turn into a story, like, the Wizard climbed a Mountain, but then his Feet slipped and he needed a Band-aid, but he didn't wanna see a doctor so he ate Apples to keep them away.
100% on first try. My technique was to find connections between the pictures and group them by common themes. This meant that I had fewer things to remember. I had the farm animals, the senses, and some others that took more of a stretch to find associations. It worked very well. There was only one I was struggling to remember but thankfully got in the last 12 seconds.
i just turned all the words into a rap song, repeating the song in my head and out loud over and over again and when it was time to do it i got all of them right.
Once again, congratulations for this very nice quiz! Nominated, of course.
(Sorry, couldn't resist...)

Nope doesn't work for me either!

I'm terrible at remembering visual details but good at remembering sounds and concepts.
