Using Monte Carlo techniques, we study Z₍ lattice gauge theory coupled to a Higgs field represented by spins situated on the lattice sites. We present phase diagrams for the Z₂ and Z₆ theories with Higgs field in the fundamental representation of the gauge group and for Z₆ gauge theory coupled to Z₃ Higgs fields.
