What means
It supplied ready-made game graphics. The Aquarius home computer, launched in 1983, had no programmable graphics, so its fixed character set held sprites—small, ready-drawn game images. Mattel designers Joe Ferreira, Monique Lujan-Bakerink, and Peggi Decarli added runners, robots, and explosions. The Aquarius character at D0 is this third frame; frames one and two are D3 and D1.

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.
