A pen block is used to make drawing games, some types of platformers and many other things.
Some ways to use it are very advanced, but the simplest you can get is a drawing game.
Basically, it's like you're drawing on a canvas and you can press space to erase.

Here is a way to make it that i have memorized:

This script can tell whether you're clicking on your mouse, and if you're not then pen will go up, meaning the pen is not pressing down, therefore not drawing. If the pen is down, it means it is drawing.

You can also make:

To erase the drawings done with then pen when space is pressed.

There are some more blocks with effects, you can try experimenting with them!
