History
Release
Shortly after release in the US Sega was forced to stop further shipments of Mystaria due to a copyright dispute with TSR, the publisher of Dungeons & Dragons[8]. TSR alleged that the name was too similar to Mystara, a setting used in the D&D world. Eventually an agreement was struck where Sega could sell off the remainder of their existing stocks, but with newly manufactured games dropping the use of Mystaria. The game was then re-released as Blazing Heroes after the original Japanese title of Riglordsaga was also thought to pose copyright issues[9].
