Abstracts: Pseudo-telepathy provides an intuitive way of looking at Bell's inequalities, in which it is often obvious that feats achievable by use of quantum entanglement would be classically impossible. A~two-player pseudo-telepathy game proceeds as follows: Alice and Bob are individually asked a question and they must provide an answer. They are \emph{not} allowed any form of communication once the questions are asked, but they may have agreed on a common strategy prior to the execution of the game. We~say that they \emph{win} the game if the questions and answers fulfil a specific relation. A~game exhibits \emph{pseudo-telepathy} if there is a quantum strategy that makes Alice and Bob win the game for all possible questions, provided they share prior entanglement, whereas it would be impossible to win this game systematically in a classical setting. In~this paper, we show that any two-player pseudo-telepathy game requires the quantum players to share an entangled quantum system of dimension at least~\mbox{$3 \times 3$}. This is optimal for two-player games, but the most efficient pseudo-telepathy game possible, in terms of total dimension, involves \emph{three} players who share a quantum system of dimension~\mbox{$2 \times 2 \times 2$}.
Key words: Pseudo-telepathy, entanglement, nonlocality, Bell's inequaliteis, POV Ms.
