Is it possible to recover wallet from 24 word seed? I've tried

You really shouldn't post a private 24 word seed online, someone could take your funds.

No worries, it's a test wallet.

It should work fine, make sure you check "BIP39 seed" under "options" in the "I already have a seed" dialog

./electron-cash restore ?
Enter argument:nature woman insane card rural basket skull innocent select cute song panther rent obey engine myself license vast illness route fringe harbor outside derive
Error: Seed or key not recognized
Is it possible that seed dictionaries dont have same words, and thus the error?

Oh you are using the command-line tool

yes,
./electron-cash version
3.1.2
You can import directly using the gui, but not with the command-line it seems. The website you linked seems to work fine for me though.

Yes, it does import when using GUI, but still not sure why generated addresses differ,

The tool https://bip39tool.ioncore.xyz/ does not support Bitcoin Cash, use https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ instead. It gives the same receiving addresses as Electron Cash.
