Also per Wikipedia — “Video games set in Barcelona” category

Wikipedia’s “Video games set in Barcelona” category lists 1 more place. A category is an editor’s judgement rather than a sourced statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it is set there

1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this game, where Wikidata records nothing and this game’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

• Sausalito United States

  “2010 racing video game Blur featured a track ostensibly set in Sausalito, although the game track does not resemble the actual landscape.” Wikipedia
