Same. But the guy forgot you can launch the ball off the side and hit the deer in the head. Also if you killed the rabbit a bird would come down and swoop it up.
Summer of 2001: Neighbor brought us a CD filled with this game and a lot of Flash oldies (with an added bonus of Need For Speed 2 all in the same CD!). Really miss playing those games
It was Dec 1999 and I was working nights at a call center. It was my first real job. We had just gotten internet for our jobs and this was the very first internet game I played. Me and my coworkers were obsessed w this game, we played every single night we worked for a few months. We even had tournaments. I worked overnight so it was slower and we would spend our entire shifts playing this game. Just seeing it now makes me smile because I haven’t seen most of those coworkers for years and years. One died of cancer about 2 years ago. But seeing this game reminds me of how happy and vibrant she was as we played Elf Bowling. ❤️
Oh my god, nostalgia man. I was obsessed with this game as a kid for quite some time. My cousin and I would play this game at my grandparent's house for HOURS.
My dad played this like crazy, i remember trying to watch Toon Disney in the living room and hear it from two rooms over or playing it with my sister. Growing up sucks man
This game tells a story of karma. The elf on the righthand side of the triangle talks the most smack, waves all the signs, and taunts santa more than the rest of them. After 3 minutes of his irritating attitude, his pin holder gets caught in his beard, and he is untimely decapitated. Truly a lesson to understand the nature of karma.
I miss this game so much. I remember the elf saying "look I got crabs" and losing my shit aftwards. And hitting the deer. It was the funniest damn game ever.
2:29--"Hey Santa..." If I rolled a strike before the elves could do what they were about to do here, I would wait for Santa to laugh "Ho ho ho ho!" ...and then blow a raspberry.
This takes me all the way back. My sister and I had an old computer with no internet in the basement. Elf Bowling was one of the only things we could do on it. So at Christmastime, we would play Elf Bowling all the time. Good memories of simpler times.
Oh god i haven't played that game like a half a decade or 2. So funny when these Elves show their asses, dancing, showing the sign said ''Santa Sux'', farts & screams from the bowling 😂😂😂
My dad had this on a floppy disk, no idea why as I don't remember him liking video games other than Microsoft Solitaire which he played religiously. Since the family computer was in my room, I would always snoop around at night, and found it in a rack of 60 or so other floppy's, played it all the time. What a cool memory!
Man I miss this game xD and I've killed the dear so many times it was unreal x3 I used to play this when I was like... 4 or 5 with my dad. Miss those days
OMG!!! A nostalgic feeling is running through my veins now... i used to play this game when i was a kid along with other many old games, my younger sister was a baby back then she would sit watching me play this and she would burst out laughing everytime they shout 😅 good old times ! I would sell my soul to relive them !!
Hey me to it was really fun. Good old times of being a kid when things use to be fun. Now you can't say or do anything that's not politically correct or that doesn't offend anyone. I bet this would piss a lot of people off these day's.
When my dad got our first compute back in 2003, it had all these basic games like solitaire, etc. this was the only game 4 year old me knew how to play. My first taste of gaming violence
I remember these old games!!! I had Elf Bowling 2, but rather than stretching the elves' underpants and slingshotting them, I used to think Santa was using a pitchfork on them XD I also remember another game I played, Diamond Demo or something like that, where you're a man in a yellow shirt I think, on a birds-eye view map of a brown landscape. You're hunting for diamonds while trying to avoid threats. There's squares of water (you drowned!) squares of lava (you got fried!) giant spiders that only move when you do (you got eaten!) giant robots that consistently chase you (you got vaporized!) and all that. And, another one...you're in a spaceship in outer space, on the bottom of the screen facing upward, and it's basically an old outer space shootemup. Your bullets start off as bland gray pixels, but can be upgraded; I remember getting a little drone that would circle around me and fire alongside me with a zigzag shaped beam; a zigzag beam of my own; a large energy sphere, and I even remember glitching the game by only hitting the very edge of the sphere powerup, which would give me a different, much more powerful shot shaped like a crescent...in the game you had a health bar and could defeat some enemies just by running into them, causing damage to your ship. Another game, in this one you're an orange robot that is continuously walking back and forth, and you can't control it. Your objective is to use the loose objects in the level to build a path enabling the robot to escape to the exit. You have to help it avoid dangers along the way, like furnace grilles and dripping pipes. I can't remember the true names of any of these old gems!!!
Hello there! I possibly played the 2nd game you're describing! I had it on disk, gotta research it later! Upd: Sadly, this might not be the game you mentioned. The one that I played was Raptor, it was for MsDos. However, the first diamond game that you mentioned might be a clone of Boulder Dash
I could never stop laughing when playing this game. As the elves came out saying. "He can't take care of his wife you know." Some of the other comments would just have me rolling with laughter.
Looking at some videos and I pass by this one makes me realize damn I remember playing this, also I do remember that the thing was able to detach the heads at times
I cannot understand why they stopped making this game. I wish my Mom would’ve saved the computer it was on, so bad. Of all the games I had, this was my favorite one. I’ve remember the elf saying tiny bubbles for twenty years. SO nostalgic.
The fact that this was one of my first games I ever played at like 5 or 6 is crazy lol. Seeing it as an adult hits different
I have no idea why it came back into my head but yeah lol. It was either this, frogapult or 3d space pinball being my first game
This was my first pc game ever I was around 6 at the time.
Same. But the guy forgot you can launch the ball off the side and hit the deer in the head. Also if you killed the rabbit a bird would come down and swoop it up.
Exactly, not the first game I played but diffently remember playing this when I was like 10 or 11 😂
It’s such a classic 🎮🎮
Have you ever rolled a gutter ball on purpose and hit the deer in the head
Uh yeah
Many a time, being the sadistic bastard i was...😂🤣
If you've played the game you probably have.
I know I did
I did it before and a deer went oof.
Yes
'Is that all the balls you've got, Santa?' LMAO
I loved how the elves had smart ass remarks🤣🤣
Facts lmao
Brings back so many memories.
good memory
Erik The Elder Dragon same
Yeah, brings back memories from my high school days
Summer of 2001: Neighbor brought us a CD filled with this game and a lot of Flash oldies (with an added bonus of Need For Speed 2 all in the same CD!). Really miss playing those games
@@diablow1411 that sounds rad, man!
My great grandmother recently passed. Id play this for hours, things were simple. This was somehow entertaining. Miss you grandma

Damn. I was only three years old at that time.
I was only 10 years old when it came out.
thats a good memory man, before the internet took over people's lives entirely
The 90's was a weird time
I grew up in the 90s
Weird, but definitely fun times. Certainly better than the shit of a decade 2010s was.
Based on December 1999? Lol
If by weird you mean fun, then yes.
@@diablow1411 WDYM? 2010 to 16 is very fun
3:16 omfg didn't expect that
This is the kinda game your dad, grandpa or uncle showed you 😂
I played this at my grandparents house as a kid along with the second and third games 😂
That's exactly how I got into it lol. Uncle of mine would let me play it while I was visiting. I was like 5 at the time.
True
2:52 Fewer toys! Higher --- AAAAAAHHHH!
Hanna Blackwell wages!
Yeah, you're not getting paid more by doing less work!
Played this at my uncle's house every Christmas with my sister oh the memories!
lol its also a virus
Me and my sister but at my grandma and grandpas house every Christmas Eve.
ikr i love this game
Me too!! And my cousins
@@FordFocus-oo8fd No it wasn't lol
Dude I remember playing this game back in the early 2000’s. Really fun
I still play it every year, from the beginning of November through Christmas Day.
Frustrating sometimes, but I love it.
Oh my god, nostalgia man. I was obsessed with this game as a kid for quite some time. My cousin and I would play this game at my grandparent's house for HOURS.
SAME!! Exactly the same!!
That’s sounded so much like me and my cousin I thought you was my cousin lol
Yup. My grandma had this on her computer in her home office. Looney tunes website had good games back then too
When i was seven i played this the innuendos totally went over my head
Which is why innuendo is safe for kids - of there's any innocence to protect, that innocence filters it right out
"Elf Elf, baby"
I’ll never forget my uncle playing this and got so pissed when the front one would side step out of the way
I used to play this at my grandpa's house
Same
Same here, odd. My grandparents also had the 2nd and 3rd game in the series.
@@NEXUS2040 that's cool. I still have my Grandpa's computer and play it still
My dad played this like crazy, i remember trying to watch Toon Disney in the living room and hear it from two rooms over or playing it with my sister. Growing up sucks man
Who would have thought a simple flash game would get a movie that literally no one asked for?
I was waiting for the deer to get hit
aha
thaturquoisekid same
You can hit the deer on the head, if you aim into the gutter when he's there.
thaturquoisekid and the rabbit
You have to nail the very last arrow to do it
I remember there'd be that one who'd bloody move sideways that pissed me off so much
i remember this as a kid, back when people emailed all sorts of random games and stuff to each other, like frog in a blender. gutter ball!
This game tells a story of karma. The elf on the righthand side of the triangle talks the most smack, waves all the signs, and taunts santa more than the rest of them. After 3 minutes of his irritating attitude, his pin holder gets caught in his beard, and he is untimely decapitated. Truly a lesson to understand the nature of karma.
My sister and I used to play this game on our aunt’s computer when she lived with my grandparents.
I miss this game so much. I remember the elf saying "look I got crabs" and losing my shit aftwards. And hitting the deer. It was the funniest damn game ever.
Friggin hilarious
I remember a day my sister was on her way to bowling a perfect game when Elliot side stepped and made her miss a strike. She raged, lol.
I used to play this, the sequel and some penguin shooting game on my mum's old Dell computer when I was a kid
2:29--"Hey Santa..."
If I rolled a strike before the elves could do what they were about to do here, I would wait for Santa to laugh "Ho ho ho ho!" ...and then blow a raspberry.
oh my god I can't believe I found this. played this so much on my grandparents computer as a kid.
my memories
Same bro same
Same
i always played this as a kid and i just remembered this game tonight and ive never been so happy with this game coming back to me :')
I had this on my Gameboy as a kid and i miss it so much
This takes me all the way back. My sister and I had an old computer with no internet in the basement. Elf Bowling was one of the only things we could do on it. So at Christmastime, we would play Elf Bowling all the time. Good memories of simpler times.
This old Windows game definitely warranted a full feature length movie.
(Elf Bowling the Movie: The Great North Pole Elf Strike)
Oh god i haven't played that game like a half a decade or 2. So funny when these Elves show their asses, dancing, showing the sign said ''Santa Sux'', farts & screams from the bowling 😂😂😂
I loved this game as a kid! My parents said it was inappropriate but I played it anyway
WOW!!! My brother and I used to play this together when we were kids. We couldn’t stop laughing at the elves.
My dad had this on a floppy disk, no idea why as I don't remember him liking video games other than Microsoft Solitaire which he played religiously. Since the family computer was in my room, I would always snoop around at night, and found it in a rack of 60 or so other floppy's, played it all the time. What a cool memory!
I Love Tho Hear That One Elf Say "GUTTER BALL"
I love how the one just randomly gets decapitated.
OH MY GOODNESS, I miss this game. 🤣 It was so funny, loved playing it with my friends. I wish there was a way I could still play this silly game.
Man I miss this game xD and I've killed the dear so many times it was unreal x3 I used to play this when I was like... 4 or 5 with my dad. Miss those days
I used to sit in front of my grandpa and watch him play this game every single day. SO MANY MEMORIES
OMG!!! A nostalgic feeling is running through my veins now... i used to play this game when i was a kid along with other many old games, my younger sister was a baby back then she would sit watching me play this and she would burst out laughing everytime they shout 😅 good old times ! I would sell my soul to relive them !!
OMG!!! I haven't played this in ages! My family and I used to love playing this! lol Thanks for posting!
I played this years ago. Wish i could find it online so i can play again
I love this game. I have memories of when I was 4, and I would play this on my parents 2001 compaq presario.
Not me at 5 saying "is that all the balls you got Santa??" 😂😂
I had forgotten all about this game til now! I can remember being a kid and watching my grandparents play this.
Wow, I loved this! Didn't realize it was so old!
I had this game on my fist computer back in 1999, my brother built my computer, I miss this! I was 17 years old
“That all the balls you got, Santa?” My favorite quote
Loved this! When I go to the actual bowling alley to play, I often quote from this game :P
That first time you saw the elf get his head ripped off lol
3:26 fart
Hey Elliot farted hahahaha
Omg this is so nostalgic. I played this back when my Nintendo DS used to work. I was maybe 7 when I played this. Thanks for uploading this video.
OMG THE ELF SCREAMS! This unlocked such a core memory in my brain, I love it
Ah memories used to play this when i was little
My brother and I used to play this game on our grandmother's computer.
Omg I would do anything to play this again I used to play on my grandmas computer
Kirby Grace Dunn same
Hey me to it was really fun. Good old times of being a kid when things use to be fun. Now you can't say or do anything that's not politically correct or that doesn't offend anyone. I bet this would piss a lot of people off these day's.
@@freefight7750 No, not really. Stuff these days is so much more inappropriate, and no one bats an eye...
This game is a core childhood memory lol
When my dad got our first compute back in 2003, it had all these basic games like solitaire, etc. this was the only game 4 year old me knew how to play. My first taste of gaming violence
I use to play this game all the time with my dad when I was young good times.
2:45 wait you can do that in this game?! I never knew that was programmed to be a thing
OMG I can remember playing this back in 99...
OMG THE NOSTALGIA WATCHING THIS IS INSANE
This game and Doom were my childhood
00:47 “is that all the balls you got Santa?” 😂😂
*Also sees score from first frame* 😂😂😂
One of my favorite games from my high school days
I used to ply this game all the time as a little child. I’m 29 years old now
I remember this game we used to have it for Windows 95. I used to love trying to hit the deer when he came to the side lol
ahh straight back to the late 90s, being a kid, loving every chance i had to play on my 400mhz Pentium with games like NFSII, Sims and HL
I used to just sit there when they did random stuff before rolling the ball into them.
I remember these old games!!! I had Elf Bowling 2, but rather than stretching the elves' underpants and slingshotting them, I used to think Santa was using a pitchfork on them XD

The sounds from this game live vividly in my head.
I remember playing this as a kid
Looking at some videos and I pass by this one makes me realize damn I remember playing this, also I do remember that the thing was able to detach the heads at times
I remember as a little kid playing this in my moms room on her big fat dell computer she had and the joy I had playing this
This brings me back to a time where I played this on my DS when I was a kid
I cannot understand why they stopped making this game. I wish my Mom would’ve saved the computer it was on, so bad. Of all the games I had, this was my favorite one. I’ve remember the elf saying tiny bubbles for twenty years. SO nostalgic.
Holy shit I used to play this everyday. I feel like I’m 4 years old again!
My childhood.
Nostalgia!!! Lmao this game was so addicting.
Still love this game...
Memories of childhood in the 90s
I remember playing this on my old Windows 98 when I was like 6 years old.
Hey!a new comment!
i used to play this as a kid! 🤣
I used to play this with my Grandpa whenever I would go over his house as a kid... Ahh, good times
This brings back memories of my childhood
I don’t know what it is, but the elves screaming is one of those things that can never not be hilarious
Holy crap i never thought I'd see this game ever again!!!!!!!! Omg!!!
I used to play this when I was 4 😍
I was addicted to this.
lol i remember this
I used to love this game.
I remember playing this game when I went to my grandparent’s all the time !!
