This thread is for documenting game sequels that don't share any parts of their titles with their predecessors. We can exclude the words "the" and "of" from consideration.

Afterburner > G-LOC: Air Battle
Midwinter > Flames of Freedom
Solstice > Equinox (Solstice 2 in Europe) Fortified Zone > Operation Logic Bomb (both part of the Ikari no Yousai series)
Final Fantasy Adventure > Secret of Mana (Seiken Densetsu 1 & 2 in Japan) Rocket Knight Adventures > Sparkster (SNES)
Zombies Ate My Neighbors > Ghoul Patrol
Rock n Roll Racing > Red Asphalt (Rock n Roll Racing 2 in Europe) Jumping Flash > Robbit mon Dieu Parasite Eve > The 3rd Birthday
Tail Concerto > Solatorobo Koudelka > Shadow Hearts
Frequency > Amplitude
The Mark of Kri > Rise of the Kasai
Boktai > Lunar Knights (still has the Boktai name in Japan) Undertale > Deltarune (it's an anagram, but w/e, it belongs here) Total Overdose > Chili Con Carnage Yo Bro > Camp California

Another World > Heart of the Alien
Flashback > Fade to Black, though I'm now realizing the title actually does incorporate part of Flashback's title. Edge case.

Do localized titles count? Because if so:
Devil Dice > Bombastic
Disaster Report > Raw Danger
Contra > Super C
And that's just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are a bunch more I'm forgetting.

Here's a bunch more from games at least notable enough to have their own Wikipedia article.
3 Skulls of the Toltecs > Fenimore Fillmore: The Westerner Demon Stalkers > Fire King Wasteland > Fountain of Dreams Great Giana Sisters > Hard n Heavy (last-minute renaming; I'm counting it) Innocent Until Caught > Guilty Epic > Inferno Planet of Shades > Jet Story Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode > The Mafat Conspiracy (Golgo 13 is still in the title of the Japanese version) Hybris > Battle Squadron Shinobi (PS2) > Nightshade Team Yankee > Pacific Islands No One Lives Forever > Contract JACK Warriors of Might and Magic > Shfters Xevious > Solvalou Airborne Ranger > Special Forces Tank Battalion > Battle City (edge case; "battle" is close to "battalion", after all) Galactic Empire > Tawala's Last Redoubt Mars: War Logs > The Technomancer Ben There, Dan That! > Time Gentlemen, Please Gravity Bone > Thirty Flights of Loving Europa Universalis: Crown of the North > Two Thrones Volcanic Dungeon > The Wrath of Magra
