@ hunter: Thanks, your Quoted introduction properly guides. Regarding "pain of creating Apps for different Smart phones", I want to say that with Phonegap, an App can be deployed to all major Smart phones with some code tweaking, as I read here. The referred Javasript Games are also good.
@ altcognito: Thanks.
@ Nick Campion: I am talking about those Type of high profile rich UI games, which are created with java for Android. Whether such type of games can be created with jQuery Mobile?
@ BandsOnABudget: thanks
@ Knossos: thanks and please tell, are you talking about browser based web games?

jQuery is Javascript so yes, Android does support jQuery.
The framework allows developers to build applications that can be accessed by the widest number of browsers and devices, whether it is Internet Explorer 6 or the newest Android or iPhone. Mobile jQuery also gives developers the ability to render basic content (as built) on basic devices.
“According to Builtwith, of the top 10,000 websites about 88% (or close to 9,000) of them are currently using jQuery as of the beginning of 2019.” jQuery is a well-tested library with a large community of developers who continue to contribute time and effort to modernize and improve the library.
1) jQuery mobile is a javascript framework, using jQuery, geared toward mobile devices
A unified user interface system across all popular mobile device platforms, built on the rock-solid jQuery and jQuery UI foundation. Its lightweight code is built with progressive enhancement, and has a flexible, easily themeable design.

2) Knowledge of JavaScript would be nice

3) It would seem so
jQuery mobile framework takes the "write less, do more" mantra to the next level: Instead of writing unique apps for each mobile device or OS, the jQuery mobile framework will allow you to design a single highly branded and customized web application that will work on all popular smartphone and tablet platforms.
4) No, but you could certainly build web-based games with JavaScript. To develop applications for Android-based devices you should download their SDK and go through their Developer's Guide.

And this is why developing for mobile devices is such a pain. You can either build an application for a specific device on a specific platform (iPhone, Android, etc) or you can build a web-based application that can't have the deep-device integration that can greatly enhance the UI.
Here's a list of JavaScript-based Games, just to give you some idea what JavaScript alone is capable of. (a lot of the links are broken)
Some good ones:
But, as you can see, you're not going to blow anyone away, but Digg Attack is very impressive for what it's working with.
