Burning Empires has a meta level where you have a certain amount of scenes used towards your purposes. Questlandia and Downfall probably fit that as well.

Perilous wilds for DW has a great procedure for world generation at the beginning of the game. It takes about 2 hours but is a great collaborative world generator. Legacy also had a nice world generator at the beginning of its play that takes about a sessions worth of time. For those games, the world generation is zoomed out but it is also a means to an end ie playing the PBTA game associated with the setting.

There’s a sourcebook for Beyond the Wall called Further Afield that has a fair amount of collaborative world building. The players and GM take turns adding major and minor locations to an abstract hex map, then roll skill checks to check the veracity of the details they add about those locations.
