So did I. It was a case of figure out the puzzle before you figure
out the clue. Before I uninstall the game I'll have to go back and
check out that clue to see how much of a clue it really is.

I'll go back and give it another shot. This will be the 3rd time
I've gone back to have another go at it. I just can't see where those
little roads are headed.

The Cryo walkthrough (which I found after finishing the game) says
this:

 Place the disks on the bridge mechanism in the order of creation
defined by the clues given by the characters.
The bridge comes half way down.
Then place the disks as follows, the order of destruction:

I didn't quite catch what the 'characters' were saying when they
gave me the disks and I didn't ask them to repeat what they
said. I'm not sure if I am interested enough to go back and
work it out though.

I don't know if there is any way of knowing that you are
supposed to set the arrow to aim at the hunter ahead of time.
But you can always go back and do it later. What does the lady
say if you haven't set the arrow toward the hunter? Does she
mention her cubs?
