I want to develop a turn-based,multiplayer android game.Its very similar to chess.Is it possible to make entire game just by using google play games services(GPGS) ? ie, creating a game between 2 players,managing player moves,changing game states in database, all this can be done using GPGS? Also,is google-app-engine anyhow related to this ?

Yes, Google Play Game Services can do all this for you. It supports leaderboards, cloud saving of progress, room based multiplayer lobby system, achievements and much more.
Here's documentation for turn-based multiplayer game service
Google app engine is hosting environment for your game, in cloud. However, you can only use Python, Go, Java and PHP to develop for it.
