I'm tempted by Legend, but I've already done that one. Also, I don't know what the space game would be.

I get the feeling even when you know what it is the response will be

Clue 6:
There was a cunning pun in the post with Clue 4 . It referred to the opposite of the shared part of the name.

Need tham all at once? Here!

Clue 1:
Second of two games which used the same engine, but it wasn't a sequel to the first game.
Clue 2:
Early 90s games, came out on Amiga and Atari ST.
Clue 3:
The two games shared something else apart from the engine.
Clue 4:
The thing they shared was part of the name, but not all of it. Neither had numbers in their name. Bonus clue-ette: The part of the name they shared referred to the main feature of the engine.

I'll make the next clue will be more enlightening
Clue 5:
The first game had a fantasy theme and this game had a sci-fi theme. In both games you controlled four people.
Clue 6:

and the prequel was 'Shadowlands', which i just about prefered out of the two.http://www.classicgaming.com/amigar...m#shadowlandsaj

[Mobygames seems to be down?]

I loved both games, they used the moody lighting effects in a really unique way at the time. It spawned a few immitators, but these were the best.

Its was Frak! one of my fond early platform experiences on my buddy's BBC micro

Huge detailed sprites for the time, and very tricky platform jumping. I liked 'Trogg' the caveman you controlled

I'm even surprised that someone actually knows about Frak! It isn't the world most known platformer although its got a cultstatus. In fact I only learned about it after I saw a 3d version of frak! for the Archimedes once.
