Contrasts:
* Invisible walls
Holograms, illusions, overgrown vines, etc. cover a doorway or similar passage which the player can just walk through, even if they expected to bump on a solid wall instead.

Exactly the opposite of what artificial barriers tag describes, you can pass through where you didn't expect to.
