The gameplay is characterized by its engaging mechanics and relaxing nature, with players appreciating the fun and calm experience despite the relatively short playtime of 1 to 3 hours. The game, particularly noted for its parody of the Sims series, effectively utilizes a gameplay loop involving need management and income generation, making it surprisingly compelling. Overall, players express a desire to return to the game even after completing all achievements.

“Llama Villa serves as a surprisingly compelling parody of the Sims series - it's bizarre how, even in this format, checking need percentages and periodically receiving income to play with makes for an effective gameplay loop.”

Reviews indicate that the game's stability is somewhat lacking, with issues such as slow object placement and occasional bugs affecting the experience. Despite these drawbacks, some players are willing to overlook them for the overall enjoyment of the game.
“However, if you're willing to look past the slow, individual placing of objects (and slightly buggy placement at that) and also a set camera angle, go for it!”
