The randomness they are supposed to produce isn't random, just close enough (or not as the case may be here and in many other games). The fact that the numbers are the same from reload to reload just shows that the RNG isn't based on anything that changes from reload to reload, such as a real time clock.

Well, but it is obviously done on purpose. This is very common with strategy games. For instance, Civ4 uses a seeded RNG where the seed for the same 'effects' use the same progression. For instance, you could get a RN for an 'attack' and then grab a random hut (like a chest) and then reload and do them in opposite order, and get the same thing.

In King's Bounty a lot of it isn't even randomized during play, it is simply fixed at start. The only things that are pseudo random are AI tactics, board make-up and 'egg' items.
