Set here, per Wikipedia
Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Otsu, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
