Question: how in the world does one search OO using what would be quotes in most other search engines?

Example: I am trying to find a thread on the game "Secret World". Because of the ubiquitous nature of the words, you can imagine the hits I am getting. So, I tried ' +secret +world' and it seemingly did not filter further.

What am I missing here?

Alternate method:

Google > site:octopusoverlords.com "secret world"
It's almost as if people are the problem.
