Quick Review:
unfortunately I can't play this game long enough to see if it gets any better. I read that it might actually be an April fools joke.

What's replay value?

Check in his message box in his public profile, although I don't understand it still...

replay value means even after you beat the game, it's still a fun game to play again.

Hey, I think I can do reviews too! (In fact, it's more to try every game, but meanwhile, why not making reviews?). Spidersid could add them to its first posts if he desires for additional review.
Here's what I've done for this game:

3D Tower Defense

Learning curve: 1/10 - No instructions except the first screen.
Gameplay: 1/10 - No tower upgrade, cannot create a strategy. Hard to place towers.
Design: 2/10 - Creeps moving in zigzags just are bad. Menu hides some of the map.
Animation: 4/10 - Lags on a powerless computer, but graphics are not so bad.
Variety: 2/10 - Enough towers, but they are the same basic towers and effects as most games.
Music & Sound effects: 0/10 - Really, is there sound?
Addictive: 1/10 = Way not, unless you try to find the ultimate strategy.
Challenging: 1/10 - Too hard, almost unplayable.
Satisfying: 0/10 - Not at all, as people seem to cheat for high scores, I can't compare myself...
Replay value: 0/10 - Not even another game to improve my strategy.
Total: 11/100 (11%)

My high-score: 3800 points
Strategy used: Spam Cannon Forts.

Pros: Not so bad graphics
Cons: Not 3D, not very original, tower placement is hard and creeps move like they were drunk. Don't know when the game starts (when the first creep comes).
Other: Really, most towers have splash?
