Arguably the most complex of all horror video game villains, the mysterious Alma Wade has a sympathetic backstory that almost makes her catastrophic crimes understandable.

A gifted psychic, Alma's out for revenge against the Armacham Technology Corporation for conducting experiments on her her whole life. Whilst being a lifelong lab rat's understandably disheartening, players of the F.E.A.R. trilogy may come to loathe the sight of her Samara Morgan-esque visage as she plays mind games with the protagonists.

By F.E.A.R. 3, just being pregnant is enough to potentially destroy the world where Alma's concerned. Not only has the fearsome mascot of the series cranked up the jump scares and general fear factor, but she can't even have a contraction without planet Earth being consumed by nightmares.

Between being a primary culprit of most of the mayhem the F.E.A.R. games have to offer and being a planet-threatening menace at the best of times, many players may wind up feeling it's their in-game duty to take this high concept menace out. Of course, given her immense psychic abilities, it's often hard to pin down just how physically real and present Alma Wade is within the games.

Knowing this just makes her harder to comprehend and confront within the action-packed confines of the F.E.A.R. games. This is just another reason many players will find themselves wanting to be rid of this classic video game baddie.
