What does this phrase mean?

"I think we got to call this one".

I guess, in the context it means "we have to give up on that idea", but I just want to be sure.

OK. This is written in a sort of adolescent slang. The standard sentence would be I think we have got to call this one off.

You're right. It means we have to abandon the plan forever; we have to give up; we have to consider the results of this game a loss.
