If you have played any kind of bowling game before you will be able to get into this. I would not say that the controls are any better or worse than any other bowling game I have played. Once you get used to the right place to stand and how much power to use, you have pretty much nailed the gameplay aspect of the game.
There are two modes to pick from. Regular Mode strips away the ability to add spin and choose how much power, which makes the whole thing pointless. Advanced Mode is where you play with the standard bowling controls.
Elf Bowling is not a bad game at all, the problem I have with it is that you have pretty much seen all that it has to offer after the first 20 or so minutes. It does have some charm and I can see it being a game that I fire up each December during my holiday gaming sessions to get me in the mood for Christmas. Just do not expect to be playing this one for hours on end and you will be fine.

Elf Bowling Item Preview. EMBED for wordpress. Want more? Advanced embedding details, examples, and help! Elf Bowling delivers its set up in a rhyming poem on the start-up screen, the overworked elves of the North Pole banding together to go on strike.
The Elf Toy Makers Union refuses to make Christmas toys anymore, so Santa Claus decides the best way to deal with the strike is to go bowling with elves instead of pins. Somehow getting them onto his icy bowling lane, Santa plays a traditional ten frame game of ten pin bowling, the elves for the most part quite nicely staying in their places as you hurl a bowling ball their way.
Hitting an elf down with the bowling ball will bruise them and leave them bleeding, the depiction mostly comical even when the machine that resets the pins pulls off the head of an elf by accident. To bowl in Elf Bowling only requires pressing either the space bar or clicking with your mouse, the path of your ball determined by a row of arrows that light up in sequence from left to right and back again over and over.
With incredible regularity this will clear all the elves in the set, making the challenge of the game about just doing this consistently. That does not, however, make the bowling any better, and Elf Bowling actually includes some deliberate attempts to prevent enjoying it purely as a bowling game. Perhaps the most egregious feature of Elf Bowling is that no matter how perfectly you click the mouse 10 to 20 times, it is impossible to get a perfect game.
This is because there is an elf who will randomly sidestep a ball coming towards him to deliberately deny you a point. The elf bowling pins have a few problems besides cheekiness though.
