First appearance Wario Land 3 (2000)

Seeing-eye doors,[1] also parsed as seeing eye doors,[2] are obstacles in Wario Land 3 that serve to block Wario's progress. They will close if Wario is nearby, unless he is currently invisible, in which case he goes undetected by a seeing-eye doors. If Wario is not invisible, other enemies or items cannot pass the door even though it is open despite being thrown from afar. Even if Wario becomes visible again while in the middle of the door, he will not be harmed by it. While seeing-eye doors cannot be defeated by normal means, exiting a level with one on-screen will defeat the pupil in the same manner as on any other enemy. Seeing-eye doors appear in three levels, in the following quantities: The Peaceful Village (1), The Vast Plain (6), and the Cave of Flames (2).
