What means
It is the lower tile of a two-frame running figure.
The Aquarius launched in 1983 without pixel-by-pixel graphics. Programmers advised on game needs; Mattel artists Joe Ferreira, Monique Lujan-Bakerink, and Peggi Decarli assembled its figures and scenery. Its Aquarius character code is hexadecimal 16.
Place above this tile for frame 1. A separate pair makes the next pose; Unicode keeps the Aquarius mapping distinct when old character data is converted.

Questions people ask
1Why does show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
