Llama Zap is Falcon, not ST(e).
Dungeon Master is not uniqe on the ST, and the Amiga version is sligtly better (you kan knock on walls to find hidden rooms).
Substation is unique (ahem, also made by Uniqe ;)) on the STe. Utopos is unique on STe as well.
Basicly the Amiga version of most games are as good or better than the ST counterparts. The Amiga hardware is simply better suited for games (and perhaps less better suited for other tasks - no platform wars please).
However, some ports of ST games to Amiga, especially simulators and such might run slightly faster on the ST - if the Amiga hardware for line and polygon drawing is not used.
However, one game I can think of is Xenon 1, which looks and plays identical on the ST and Amiga - BUT Dave Whittaker failed miserably with the Amiga soundtrack, and his ST soundtrack is much better. So, there's a game which is better on the ST :) However - for Xenon 2 the soundtrack screwup is reversed.
