One of the most surprising things for me about Elf Bowling was how much personality it has. To blow off some steam and perhaps show these pesky elves who is boss, Santa is using them as bowling pins. The story is that the elves have gone on strike (they must have a pretty good union) and as Christmas is coming, Santa is super mad. As the name of the game suggests, this is a Bowling game, but there is actually a story running through this game.
