In the Departurer game, two notes are played in sequence, They are named as "M" or "P" numbers, like P3 or M5. What do M and P represent?

M = Major, m = minor, P = Perfect. as in P4 is a perfect 4th, M3 is a Major third, etc.

And “ A” ? Is that augmented ?

Augmented is a type of chord not an interval.

The interval of a fifth or augmented fourth does exist, though, doesn't it?

It does. But it doesn’t appear in departurer or the other interval games hence their enharmonic equivalents

So what is the “ A” ? I’m at level 130 and the A” interval has been introduced.

Intervals can be shrunken down aka diminished and can technically be enlarged as well aka Augmented. However, this is not common at all.
