Gilbert: Escape from Drill
The story makes no sense but you're some weird creature stranded on an alien planet and you have to search for the missing parts of your spaceship to leave, so you can be the guest at a gameshow on planet Earth. There's a bunch of minigames and some arcade sequences where you have to avoid things or throw your snot at them...

Speaking of weird games starting with "Wiz":

It's a nonlinear scrolling space shooter where you need to collect drops of paint and use it to restore color to the world. It is not, unfortunately, a game about wizards playing basketball..

Gates of Dawn on Commodore64 was EXTREMELY weird. You had to do illogical things in a castle which seems somewhat related to your own mind, full of weird and bizarre creatures with creepy sounds. A sort of Gene Wolfe's fantasy made by someone who took LSD

Garage: The Bad Dream Adventure is pretty bizarre. I've only seen gameplay videos of it and it makes little to no sense and the music's a mix of being mellow and disturbing at the same time. I think only 500 copies of the game were made.

I played a demo of game once on the PS1 when I was young that was really bizarre and I can't find anything about it. All I remember: it was like an FPS puzzle game of some kind, pretty gritty brownish graphics, in which you sort of teleported onto mountain? tops or something. I think the loading screen had a beating heart or something in a white room? Really really weird.

A game about a pair of morons who go around the world to kick ass, beef up by channeling the spirits of their bodybuilder fathers, and stop aliens from conquering Earth. It plays like the bastard son of Cho Aniki and Pocky & Rocky.
