Tetris. Screw your long quests and tremendous amount of replay value, I can sit and play that game for hours without even realizing it.

What you are experiencing is replay value. One of the requirements for being an addictive game.

When someone says replay value, they generally mean multiple endings, many quests, multiple characters, customizable characters, ect, not simple addictive puzzle games.

I would have to disagree. Replay value is anything that gets you to play it again. The simplest games can have replay value. Minesweeper has replay value but doesn't have anything from your list of criteria.

 I'll say it even more clearly this time: when replay value used as a buzz word it generally means those thingsI listed above.

Replay value is entertainment value. Pure and simple. And it's different for everyone. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replay_value
