The smartphone version, which is being ported by London-based studio The Secret Police, is the full game and plays almost identically to other versions, only rebuilt for touch-based gameplay with a new user interface, menu systems, and controls. It will include the single-player content of the version 1.3 update, such as the Night Market, but not multiplayer.
PC users will be able to transfer their save data to the iOS version via iTunes. However, as mods are not supported by the smartphone version, any save data transferred containing mods may cause compatibility issues.
Here is an overview of the game, via its store page:
