Kind of depends what you mean by that. You can see the final results, i.e. scores and placings, by going into your notifications and clicking on the game (or from the Latest Results on the left). But if you're meaning seeing the final turns everyone took, not that I've found, which I think is a major fault of this site. On the game replay you can put in how many moves to go forward but I've had difficulty figuring out how that works. It always seems to replay numerous moves but not everything? And since it's not rounds, there's a lot of moves and very hard to figure out where in the game you want to go. And if anything goes wrong while you're doing it, you get to start over.

(This is something I was eventually going to post about.)

Is there any news about raising the current limit of being only able to play 10 games? Thanks in advance! :)

I am still wondering about this.

I see there is an option to play a turn based game without any time limits. What happens if a player doesn't ever log in again? Does the system clean up such 'zombie' games?

It's not literal. There is a time limit - it's just more lengthy. I'm not positive on this (especially since it's been changed at least once), but I believe it allows 8 days for a turn. Once that has passed, you would be able to expel the player, in theory. I try to be fairly lenient about time before expelling, and let their total time run down. But on unlimited, total time is rather longish.

Is there some other way to get an answer to my question, since I am not getting an answer here?

That seems to happen a lot around here. I personally have not found any way to do this, and I've looked pretty thoroughly through everything I can think of. Other than the normal restrictions, my guess would be no. As to another place to ask, you could take a crack over on Board Game Geek.
