2.5D engine on Android?

Question

Such a minus score of this question shows the power of stackoverflow and and wrong understanding of 2.5D, there are no 2.5D game in fact, Only 2D or 3D.

I want to develop a 2.5D game on Android just like 'minigore2' on iphone, Is there any 2.5D engine in Android?

This is the effect I want:

enter image description here

Just make a 3D game with a camera angle of what you see here...There is really no such thing as a 2.5D game... — Jeeter, Jan 02 '13 at 15:11
Minigore can't change the angle of camera so I think it is a fake 3D game. — herbertD, Jan 02 '13 at 15:27

Like Wikipedia states, you can either render 2D images on the screen giving the effect of a 3D world. For this I would suggest you have a look at the SurfaceView class on the Android developer site as well as having a look at this Android Game Dev. link

If you prefer to rather create a 3D world and set the camera at a fixed angle and location the I suggest you have a read on OpenGl ES for Android.

If you are looking for Game Engines for Android, I suggest you have a look at this thread.

I hope this helps.
