	Insight, by Jon Ingold 2 votes "Interrogate a suspected murderer" [+]"Interrogate a suspected murderer" --jakomo... "I am not sure..." [+]"I am not sure exactly what this poll is looking for in terms of similarities with Color the Truth. Story? Setting? Gameplay? In terms of gameplay (maybe even story), this game is a good choice for something with similar structure. The first half of Insight involves interrogating a murder suspect, and the second half features the player snooping around in a home on Mars. Both games focus on conversation when interacting with NPCs while also allowing the player to explore a space. That is one of the things I liked about Color the Truth. It is a conversation game that does not do away with compass directions. I also enjoyed Insight. Be sure to play it a few times to get the most experience." () --Kinetic Mouse Car...

	The Spectators, by Amanda Walker 1 vote "Multiple perspectives, simple story-driven puzzles, conversation" [+]"Multiple perspectives, simple story-driven puzzles, conversation" ( - Full review) --MathBrush... Vote for this game

	Mystery!, by Gene Welborn 1 vote "A generic yet..." [+]"A generic yet intriguing murder mystery where you interview NPCs one by one to understand the murder. Dialog uses a menu system of prompts, and the player can only use topics listed in bold. This attention to keywords reminds me of Color the Truth. It also features the "recall" command to review your findings. It's made of Inform but incorporates character photos into the gameplay. Even better, the photos consist of Lego figurines." --Kinetic Mouse Car... Vote for this game
