Hey, why not.
I've been working for some time now on a framework-ish thing to make turnbased multiplayer games using Play Services.
The idea is to reuse all the stuff that is not actual gameplay (such as finding games, list of current games etc), and just be able to plug in gamelogic and release a new game.
Only 1 so far: Quoridor Online. More info about the game on Wikipedia.
Up next on the agenda is to add chat. Currently trying to use firebase but it's not really working properly, having to use a token from Play Services and oh well.. should not bother you with the details.
So why not check it out and try to beat someone playing it :)
I am in the process of building an android version of the boardgame Quoridor
So far I have:
- 2 player games (versus a friend or versus a random opponent)
- 4 player games (versus 3 friends or versus 3 random opponents)
- 2 achievements (out of 7 that are defined)
The game uses Google Play Games to handle all networking, playermatching, notifications. It's functional in that people can play games properly, but still very much in development (this shows for example in the UI)

I'm aware of many issues atm, but working on it. So if you want you can give it a go and play with randoms, or friends.
