Yes agree with @phy but in your case,you could install the game at first and then transfer (maybe half) of the data to SD card. It helped me in my Z2 (I installed MC5,MC4 and Asphalt 8 at once)

Google restriction in any act of transferring apps to SD card directly is commonly impossible unless you root your phone. That restriction is introduced in 4.4KK alongside with where no act of modifying data on SD card by certain file manager apps.
