most often seen in hard scifi but there's also hard fantasy like gladstone's three parts dead series (magic as contract law)
apart from that, the "fantastic tour de force" or what to call it where a world just gobbles up the protagonist (→Walter Moers)

e.g. in the City of Dreaming Books, the protag is dumped deep in a city-sized library and has to find his way out
