We have game engines but no software motors. We do have generators though. Seems like motors are smaller (or maybe less complex) than engines. Engines came from steam motors too. Here's a distinction: Is a steam engine a motor? A steam motor is a form of steam engine used for light locomotives and light self-propelled motor cars used on railways. The origins of steam motor cars for railways go back to at least the 1850s, if not earlier, as experimental economizations for railways or railroads with marginal budgets.
