Your Set game should have 24 cards.

Add 24 custom buttons in storyboard and link them to the cardButtons outlet and flipCard: action method in GameViewController (the parent of SetGameViewController):

Move the matching-card game specific code of updateUI to the CardGameViewController:

//  GameViewController.h
- (void)updateUI
{
    self.scoreLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Score: %d", self.game.score];
    self.resultOfLastFlipLabel.alpha = 1;
    self.resultOfLastFlipLabel.text = self.game.descriptionOfLastFlip;
    
    [self updateSliderRange];
}

//  CardGameViewController.m
- (void)updateUI
{
    UIImage *cardBackImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"cardback.png"];
    
    for (UIButton *cardButton in self.cardButtons) {
        Card *card = [self.game cardAtIndex:[self.cardButtons indexOfObject:cardButton]];
        [cardButton setTitle:card.contents forState:UIControlStateSelected];
        [cardButton setTitle:card.contents forState:UIControlStateSelected|UIControlStateDisabled];
        cardButton.selected = card.isFaceUp;
        cardButton.enabled = !card.isUnplayable;
        cardButton.alpha = (card.isUnplayable ? 0.3 : 1.0);
        
        if (!card.isFaceUp) {
            [cardButton setImage:cardBackImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        } else {
            [cardButton setImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        }
    }
    
    [super updateUI];
}

The method for the set cards is a little bit different as the card is always shown and just changes the background when selected:

- (void)updateUI
{
    for (UIButton *cardButton in self.cardButtons) {
        Card *card = [self.game cardAtIndex:[self.cardButtons indexOfObject:cardButton]];
        [cardButton setTitle:card.contents forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        cardButton.selected = card.isFaceUp;
        cardButton.enabled = !card.isUnplayable;
        cardButton.alpha = (card.isUnplayable ? 0.3 : 1.0);
        if (card.isFaceUp) {
            [cardButton setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithWhite:0.9 alpha:1.0]];
        } else {
            [cardButton setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
        }
    }
    
    [super updateUI];
}
