The easiest thing to do is look for a walkthrough on YouTube

Search the environment. Press H to highlight what you can actually use on the map.

Example: There is a wooden crain wich you can shoot to drop boxes on 2 guards , or if you wait , 3 guards at the same time.

Don't give up! This was the first game I played in the genre and it made me a fan of turn-based tactical games.

You can most certainly shoot it. If you highlight the boxes, and have Takuma shoot it, he'll hit the knot holding the boxes up. Do it at the right time, and that's three guards down with no one the wiser.
Guards dont raise the alarm for "Accidents" (falling rocks, icicles, etc)

Another trick I use when trying to see who can see you is to run to a spot (keep your mouse there), then when the green "Vision Cone" is shown, click the spot again, you will crouch walk (suwari-aruku) and the cone will usually go away, but it will show you who is watching certain areas. A lot of times they are up out of view from the camera, this is an easy way to see who can see what. (you can place the view cone thing on the ground, but, you never know if it is solid or semi green)

AND
if you like these kinds of games, check out Hitman, it is kind of like this, but a FPS and only 1 person. I like the 5 people, stacking "Shadow Attacks", it gets even better when you time them to run their attacks separately, throw the powder, wait, throw the suriken, wait, shoot the guard, etc, really cool variation to other similar games.

That doesn't sound very encouraging if playing a real-time game turned you to turn-based. :)

Because I have to think every move out ahead of time with such care, I tend to think of this game as turn-based.
