In this game mode, you'll have to rely on your game sense to win. Predicting the storm will prove as an additional obstacle in addition so prepare for a more strategic gameplay!
Awareness is Key to Winning
Similar to the regular game modes, the goal in the Barebones LTM is to outlive all other opponents and be the last player standing! It is a Squads game mode so you can choose to play with up to 4 players.

In the Barebone LTM, a few essential UI elements have been removed. Although the UI isn't entirely gone since the item and crafts display and teammate UI will still be there.
No Map & Compass
With the map and compass gone, you will need to rely on your familiarity with the areas to get around the island. It will also remove your ability to check for the safe zone and the storm.
No Storm Timer
Timing your movements is essential in this game mode since there's no storm timer here! Going about without care can easily get you caught by the storm.
No Heads Up Display
Alerts, including when the storm will close in, are unavailable in this game mode. There's really no other way to find out where the storm is other than by seeing it yourself.
No Other Difference from Regular Battle Royale Modes
The Barebones LTM has the same mechanics and goal as other regular Battle Royale game modes. The only difference really is the removal of some of the user interface.

Be Completely Aware of Your Surroundings
Without the map, it can be a bit hard to pinpoint where to go and what you'll pass through to get there. Be aware of your surroundings or you might find yourself in areas that attract tons of enemies.

Getting caught in the storm isn't as bad early in the game and you can use this to your advantage. By knowing where the edge of the storm is, you'll be able to somehow figure out its course!
Check the Storm's Movements from High Ground
Going on high ground will give you a vantage point to check for the storm's movements. From there you can also check your distance from it and from what direction it is closing in.
