try lots of spray and wipe, use orange power and leave it on the wall for a little while before wiping/ forcefully wiping off (its what we used for getting crayon off painted walls) just do a really little un-obvious area first to make sure it doesnt stain.

Have you tried baby wipes? Random but they often work...

These worked great for marks on our walls too. Not pen specifically but other marks that nothing else would get off.

Yup, those magic eraser things work on pen.
Benjy scribbled in pen on our newly painted walls and they worked a treat for getting rid of it.
