About

A competitive first-person shooter, *Counter-Strike* is a player-versus-player game where two teams—Counter-Terrorists and Terrorists—compete in objective-based rounds. The core gameplay involves eliminating the opposing team or completing specific tasks such as defusing a bomb, rescuing hostages, or protecting a VIP, with match outcomes determining in-game currency for equipment purchases. Set in a modern military context without a defined narrative, the game emphasizes tactical teamwork, weapon customization, and round-based progression.
