I think you should make some more space that 3.8GB, because the app itself takes a lot more space when it's installed.. At least I think so, I could be wrong. Delete some space with the Storage Checker app and try again.

you should try manually downloading the game app to the microSD card, restart the phone, wait 1 minute, go into market and install the app from the SDcard. It should work since you have 3.8gb free space already, using this method should help avoid using the free space for app download to the phone.

You should try what dry pod mentioned otherwise through webapp or accessing /installing the app from ms store on your phone requires you to have 4 times the game size free available on your phone for thew installation otherwise it would not work. I was able to install asphant 7 600mb after clearing exactly 2.4gb free space. It happens to be a shiity windows limit but can't help it.

Try to copy .xap file from MS Store to SD Card. You will need less free space to install apps.
