Batoen: Dragon Quest Battle Pencils!

 

 How clever, use the hexagonal cross-section of a pencils as dice. Mix it in with the kind of rules you would find in a card game like Pokemon and you have the latest Japanese craze that is heading to our shores. Expect a TV show based on this soon…

I would swear that when I was a kid there was a game a little bit like this so the entire thing may not be all that new.
