That’s the crux. Wittgenstein himself believed otherwise and spent the most part of the book arguing against it.
I could be wrong, but my understanding was that Wittgenstein did think there were correct and incorrect ways of playing language games, but that this was context-dependent, and of course, someone could always choose to play another language game instead.
According to this article, the point being made with the sequences is that the correct completion is subject to interpretation and even though I could try to explain how the sequence should be interpreted, this explanation would itself be subject to interpretation, leading to an infinite regress. Wittgenstein ends up arguing in the end that we learn things through training rather than explanation.

Yeah, what I meant was the belief that there’s no incorrect way to set up a language game.
