Depending on the map and the team you're on (terrorists or anti-terrorists), you have to try to achieve one objective or another. At the start of each round, you have to buy your weapons and gear if you don't have it from the previous round. The rounds in CSGO Mobile (Test) are exactly the same as the ones in the game for Windows and Mac. And of course, at the bottom of the screen, you have the buttons for switching between your main weapon, secondary weapon, and your knife. You'll have a button to shoot above both thumbs, so you can shoot quickly, no matter what action you're currently doing. With your left thumb, you'll control the virtual joystick to move around, and with your right thumb you can aim your weapon. The default controls are straightforward and intuitive. In all the available games you'll play against real players. It is important to keep in mind that here you won't be playing against bots.

This version is still under development and some sections are clearly still under construction. CSGO Mobile (Test) is a preliminary version of the mobile adaptation of Counter Strike: Global Offensive.
