Before, Google Android 4.3 released, it was made mandatory that every downloaded apps and game from Play Store should be directly installed to the internal storage of your phone. After the release of Android 4.3, these restrictions were officially removed and the developers were given the option to choose whether they wanted to allow their apps/games to be moved from the internal storage to the SD Card.

Probably not all the apps and games which you download and install from the Play store can be moved to SD Card, but yes most of them can be moved. It depends on the developer of the particular app whether he/she wish to give the users the option.
