Elf Bowling

Common card · No. 452601

Elf Bowling is a 1998 sports video game for Microsoft Windows. It was originally created as promotional marketing content by Dan Ferguson and Mike Bielinski, co-founders of NVision Design, and became an Internet phenomenon in 1999 as the executable file circulated widely by email, amid rumours that it was a computer virus. It subsequently developed into a series of Windows games featuring Christmas-themed variations on sports and other games. The first two games were later released together by Ignition Entertainment as Elf Bowling 1 & 2 for the Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance. The compilation received generally negative reviews, with critics citing its graphics, audio, controls, and lack of additional content; the Nintendo DS version received scores of 1.4 out of 10 from GameSpot and 12 out of 100 from Metacritic. The series was also adapted into the computer-animated film Elf Bowling the Movie: The Great North Pole Elf Strike, released on DVD in 2007.
