Santa Strike App Reviews

For $0.99, it does have some entertainment value (if youre looking for a festive app, or have grown tired of the excellent Angry Birds). I have no idea what the previous reviewer means about "strategic", however: you touch your screen once to freeze the ball into position, then tap again to determine the direction in which the balls going to roll. In both cases, the controls are a little off, and the elves tumble before the ball even arrives. But whats worse... No altering speed, no surprise visits from reindeer or the like, and absolutely no snarkiness from the elves. The "shock" value was what kept my friends and I playing the game at our Christmas party, and which prompted me to buy a Elf Bowling Tshirt from original company NStorm: what were the elves going to say next? Did one elfs head really come off at times? And _could_ you _really_ knock Rudolph out with a well-placed gutterball? The whole humour is gone. Here, it just looks like Santa is attacking a swarm of cute and cuddly elves. One of their comments, "Why, Santa, Why?" says it all.

I know I remember Elf Bowling fondly, but I also know it wasnt the best game by any stretch of the imagination. While this game isnt completely fine tuned yet, So far it looks far better than Elf Bowling and is also abit more in depth. My kids love it and thats what I think this game is made for anyway. A nice variety in the elves and the sounds. Dont over think it, and its a nice time!

Dont waste your .99! It stinks!

High addiction potential.

Very fun game!

Fun, holiday themed game!!

Great fun. Cant wait for the update.

Fun little game to play during this festive season, bowling in christmas theme! Smooth gameplay and polished graphics. A game like this is exactly what you need during christmas to play with your family and friends~

Very disappointed with this app!! Not even close to the original elf bowling game! Very lame, not worth the money!!

This game is nothing like the real Elf Bowl its a lot like getting coal in your stocking.

NOT worth $0.99! I was letting a three year old play it and even he got board of it. Tapping twice is fun for five minutes not a second more.

This game pales in comparison to the PC version. Apple needs to implement a 5 minute refund rule. You will become bored with this game long before the 5 minutes are up.

Very disappointed. Not the same as the original elf bowling. Why? Its NOT fun!!Wasted money!!!! I shouldve read reviews first! Want a refund. Im not even going to call it elf bowling. I want the original back from the yr. 2003. Not worth any stars.

Good thing it didnt cost more than .99 cents! Not the real elf bowling, in case ur wondering. Not a bad game.

Theres a reason there is no demo. The elves fall down before the ball hits them. Sometimes even when the ball doesnt look like it will hit them. Controls are not good - tap once to stop the ball side to side and tap again to choose an angle. Doesnt feel like you are throwing the ball and doesnt feel like you did throw it when the elves falldown early and unconvincingly. Save your money and your time. Choose a bowling game with a demo or better reviews.

Its lame. One level only. Elves say the same 3 or 4 smartass things over and over. Someone phoned this app in...they clearly didnt put much thought into it at all. Dont bother using the space to download this app

I was hoping it was like elf bowling... Im disappointed they should make a real elf bowling app

Waste of space and $. Should have read the reviews. This is NOTHING like the REAL elf bowling... So boring. What false advertisement. I want a refund! Not even worth one star but had to give it some rating so my review would post! TERRIBLE!

This is nothing like the original game. The elves make a few comments, but dont do half the things they used to. I was waiting for them to moon me, sing "Ice, Ice Baby", the reindeer to cross the path so I could try to hit it, or to hear Santa laugh with strikes, but they never do any of that.

A wast of money
