Hell yeah. I was super excited to see another collab wad hosted by AshtralFiend because of how good Neon Overdrive was, and We Have Doom at Home absolutely did not disappoint. The first two maps don't give a great first impression, but once you step into Matt Eldrydge's "Althain", it's nonstop bangers from then on. Don't be fooled by the 50 enemy max limit, these maps are tight and extremely fun, with some great fights that make fantastic use of that very small enemy count. Admittedly some fights can be a bit annoying with how cramped a couple arenas are, but it's never too frustrating. The theme just being "houses" kinda undersells how cool this wad is, it starts out simple but the latter half of this wad goes in some VERY cool places, even if the finale doesn't quite stick the landing. The custom weapon set is really great too, it does just enough to add some spice to the gameplay without being a mess of overpowered nonsense with too many gimmicks. I don't think WHDAH is quite as complete of an experience as Neon Overdrive, but it's a great exploration of what sounds like a really basic and limiting theme.
