Elf Bowling 1 & 2 is a Nintendo DS compilation consisting of two mini-games by NStorm. Elf Bowling challenges players to guide Santa in knocking down playful elves through timed button presses. In Elf Bowling 2, gameplay transitions to a shuffleboard style, requiring players to slide elves into designated scoring areas by timing their shots with a moving light.
This game is a compilation of two NStorm-developed mini-games: Elf Bowling and Elves in Paradise: Elf Bowling 2. Both games come with unchanged graphics straight from their flash-based originals.
Elf Bowling is a standard bowling game, where the player as Santa hurls a bowling ball down an alley at belligerents elves. This is done by pressing a button at the right moment as a red cone moves left and right along the bottom of the lower screen.
Elf Bowling 2 is a game of shuffleboard. The goal of the game is to hurl Elves down the deck into a score zone at the end of the ship. This is done by aiming the elf left and right with the D-pad, and hitting A-button at the right moment as a light slides across the grid in front of the player's character.
