'true' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

(Other definitions for utopian that I've seen before include "I put on a show of perfect kind" , "Citizens of Thomas More's perfect country" , "Perfectionist reformer" , "Idealistic but usually impractical" , "Really ideal in perfect fictional country" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Globe and Mail.
