so ignoring story, theme, presentation, etc. just purely gameplay elements, what are some really strange games?
Knights in the Nightmare for me, I was definitely not expecting that game to play the way it does. Very strange combination of tactical RPG and bullet hell. --- move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines. Have sheep troopers squadrons A and B flank the cows.

Getting Over It isn't strange in its mechanics. Its a very bizarre game, but only because of the character and setting.

disregarding weird experimental indie flash games since there are a ton of those and I probably don't remember the weirdest one I played anyway, I'd say probably bionic commando. replacing the jump in a sidescrolling action/platformer with a grappling hook is super weird

oh i guess rabi ribi is pretty strange
optimal scoring in mushihimesama requires you to exploit buggy game mechanics due to way shot and full auto work depending on the shot type you use you have to adjust the interval and trigger time for your shots in addition to doing rhythmic tapping on your shot/full auto buttons to build up your score counter and then blink the counter using the opposing shot type --- https://i.imgtc.com/jUodQdE.jpg Barbecue confederate flags over spare time ...

Vagrant Story. It feels like everytime I play the game I have to get adjusted to the controls. I have to relearn the timing for chain attacks and I tend to do had in my first battle every time I play.

Baiten katos on the Gamecube. I was so glad the sequel streamlined the card battles. Your party shares and deck and if IIRC, no more defense cards. Nothing pissed me off more in the first one when I was sitting on a hand of armor cards and no practical way to get rid of them. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.

Xenoblade Chronicles X.
Loved the game but the combat system was so god damn complex and customizable I'm still not entirely sure what I was doing and I completed it. EDIT: Brutal Legend too, for like the first 20 minutes you think it's a hack n slash but then it's a 3rd person open-world action RTS with a heavy driving component??? --- "I still have a tattoo to get, that says I'm living in the moment." ...
