The globally acclaimed sketch comedy sensation, The Mighty Boosh has launched The Mighty Decider, a new iPhone app that delivers what this indecisive world has been waiting for – a life management tool that will guide the decision making process, as well as providing continuous hours of entertainment. Boosh fans across the globe will revel in the fact they can turn to the quirky and surreal Boosh universe at a moments notice to assist in their life choices.

Voters in this year’s general election can use The Mighty Deciders’ critical decision crunching suite of tools to ask the wise and worldly “Moon,” transformed into the classic Magic 8 Ball, to decide whether to vote Labour, Conservative or Liberal; A wag can now reach out to the “Crack Fox” and “Flip a Coin” to decide whether or not to dump their love-cheat football playing partner; couples and sweethearts can play “Spin the Bottle” with a special love potion hand-mixed by “Bob Fossil”, and the man on the street can go to “Naboo The Enigma” and have him read his fortune.

As with all Boosh releases, The Mighty Decider is offbeat, quirky and original. Its development and creation involved The Mighty Boosh cast of Noel Fielding, Julian Barratt, Rich Fulcher, Mike Fielding and Dave Brown, all of whom contributed their voices for the project. Barratt and Fielding also created the artwork for the app and the cast improvised lines for The Mighty Decider. US mobile games developer, Tribal
